could be much better if
• The first person feeling was enhanced.
Right now there is no feeling for who you are. I enjoy being the puppeteer.
• Dialogue based information, mixed with film clips.
If I order this old lady to start a blockade against the military base i want to see what that looks like. Not read about it in the news papers.
Let's say you walked around in (where ever you moght be) and had to meet these persons (instead of looking at them in a book). Just walking might not sound so fun, but of some reason I appreciate games where you also have to do a bit of boring things like, searching, walking, eating, sitting etc.
