While we're talking about Crackdown
Jen pointed this out the other night while I was playing.
Ok, so there's an achievement called Master Agent. Like a lot of other acheivements it centers around you collecting skill orbs. However, this one is achieved when you collect and max out all possible skills. That pretty much renders orbs useless....don't belive me? See for yourself:
Master Agent (40) Earn 4-star ratings in all five skill areas and then max out your Skills Status meters.
So what do you think your reward is for reaching this level? What is the only possible reward that would make sense to give somebody who has maxed out all skill levels by collecting orbs, to the point where they won't take any more?
If you said more orbs, pat yourself on the back. How stupid was that, eh? It's like giving Bill Gates a scratch and win lottery ticket for his birthday.
