I don't mind the RPG stuff, in fact I would welcome it more. But so far I'm rather underwhelmed at how it's implemented. If you're doing RPG (and I would argue that sims ARE ultimately a role-playing genre), you have to at least do it well. Crewmen with pre-scripted lines that they tell you once every patrol is really not cutting it as a role playing game...

In theory I don't see anything wrong with the idea. But to see it implemented in this way is really not encouraging.
