Fans hoping to experience the further adventures of Agent Michael Thornton will be sorely disappointed, as Sega West president Mike Hayes reveals that a sub-70 Metacritic average and slow sales rule out the chance for an Alpha Protocol sequel.
Alpha Protocol was a solid action role-playing game, but its more glaring flaws brought it to its knees, netting it a Metacritic review average in the mid-60ās on consoles (the PC version scores a little more than 70.) According to Mike Hayes, speaking to CVG, this isnāt enough of a score to warrant a second look at Obsidianās spy game. After pointing out the gameās low sales, Hayes explains.

Why the difference between RPGs and other genres? Hayes says itās because role-playing games are such large and involved projects, the investment needed to produce them is that much bigger.
Donāt cry too much for developer Obsidian Entertainment. With Fallout: New Vegas and Dungeon Siege 3 in the works, there wonāt be time to mourn.
