I was thinking today (dangerous I know ;)), what would objectives look like in DT? It came to me that objectives usually come from someone other than your character giving you the mission. But what if you're character informed you that something absolutely needed to be done? It would allow you as the player to understand your character much more. This idea is specifically unique in that it allows you to hear/see/watch your character's thoughts develop as the game develops. This allows the single player, without a lot of help from AI characters, to maintain a steady game play.

Honestly, that sounds almost like the game should be in second person (ya know, "You run up the stairs. You eat pie" etc)

Actually no. It'd be more like you yourself thinking through it... only it's from the characters perspective:
Anonymous wrote:"The quake seems to have knocked out the stairwell and the elevator... I need to find an alternate route to the lab.
Something like that...
