This must be one of the worst games I've played, ever. Sure, it was a bit dated when I bought it from the "bin" (2003), but it was a major diappointment even so. Deus Ex came out the same year, and is IMHO a much more thought out game than NOLF. Some of its problems: - Yap, yap, yap, yap (I often pressed Space to skip over the pointless talking that could take longer than the actual task). - Very episodical and uninspiring tasks. - Foes sometimes shot at "me" through doors and walls (without visual). - Often incredibly illogical problem solving. I played Project Eden right before, and that's a masterpiece in comparison when it comes to tough but clever puzzles.
