I forgot to include ....
Love & Hate: While sitting back and listening to many of the "Act" introductions, and especially the final ending movie, I felt this game included some really excellent writting. I mean, writting/story-telling that's (in my opinion) far better than most recent RP games offered. I really loved the story and script of this game .... but many times the atmosphere was kiltered (not sure that's a real word, hehe) by the voice acting.
Please don't take this the wrong way, the voice acting wasn't horrible, but I hope in BD-2 the voice acting could be improved to match the high quality of the script/story.
Thanks for considering my opinions,
