I never got your obsession with this. Then again, I don't get Watchmen
either.

What's not to like? A totally hostile environment, prisoner armies, and
characters lifted straight out of all the sci fi movies!

It passed me by when I never read 2K and I just didn't grab the pitch.
Dunno, maybe it's an attention span or comfort zone thing. It's like that
Cradlegrave thing. I know it was good but I skipped it. I've got so much
shit going on in my own head there probably isn't room for it. I'm trying to
chuck stuff out not fill it with more crap.

I've just a quick look at it. The first impression was it's like Doom, Deus
Ex, and Half-Life smashed together. There's a lot of primal screaming, bad
dialogue, and something or nothing cliffhangers. It's like Vampire: the
Masquerade - Bloodlines compared to Redemption. Some people like it but I
prefer something more epic and bohemian.

No you're not!  A vacuum sucks in air!  You're just replacing one lot of
crap with another...

Ever seen "How Clean Is Your House?" or any one of that other multitude of
similar programmes?
