If you wanted to do that why would Mirror's Edge appeal to you in the first place?
This is like when my girlfriend revealed to her mother that she was bisexual, and her mother replied, "Then why would you want to marry Keenan?"
What do you mean, "if you could shoot people, why would you play Mirror's Edge?"
I imagine I'd do it for the exploration gameplay! This is not an excuse for the gunplay to suck. Do not give excuses for lazy designers! Besides that, even if gunplay was awesome, would that take away from good parkour elements? No!
Also, Cardboard Tube's Gandalf av should really be holding a cardboard tube, instead of Gandalf's staff.

I mean, really, though, why would she want to marry you, if she could be having hot, lesbian sex for the rest of her life, instead?

Question: Would Mirror's Edge be better if you couldn't use guns at all?
It would be better than poorly implemented guns.
Yes.
So it's lazy for them to implement gunplay but not do it perfectly, but it's not lazy for them to just leave them out entirely?
If you design a game that includes one poorly implemented dynamic, its retarded to claim that was your intention. "Man the shooting in gta sucks." "It's a driving game!"

Imagine you are a chick who can have hot, lesbian sex anytime you want to, Preacher.
How good of a person would it take for you to give that up? Exactly. And I don't think JamesKeenan is Jesus squared.

'Cause marriage has tax benefits, but Florida just banned gay marriages, gay civil unions, gay friendships and everything else. So she's stuck.
Isn't their a law saying basically if you're married in another state, your state has to recognize it. Didn't the wording of prop 2 go against that law?

Well, I dunno it's crazy but maybe the intent is more "we didn't make it a priority."
I mean, the parkour in Fallout 3 is balls terrible but I think the excuse that it was not something they spent a ton of time on makes sense.

See, I know you're kidding, but I'm going to make a point out of it.
Complaining about bad parkour in Fallout 3 is silly. There is no parkour. It wasn't a background initiative. It's not in at all.
If they did implement it, and advertised it, and then it sucked? It was buggy as hell. You constantly clipped through the walls. Buggy ledges, falling through worlds, overall bad implementation.

And the Raven, never flitting, still is sitting, still is sitting
On the pallid bust of Pallas just above my chamber door;
And his eyes have all the seeming of a demon's that is dreaming,
And the lamplight o'er him streaming throws his shadow on the floor;
And my soul from out that shadow that lies floating on the floor
Shall be lifted — nevermore!

Actually: Better example.
The gunplay in Fallout 3 is bad
The movement is bad.
The gunplay is bad partially because VATS is designed to be used often, not simply as a last resort. And frankly, it's not a shooter, it's an open-ended RPG. The enemies are stupid, and you're not going to run into a lot of situations where a crack shot is necessary.
The movement is bad because well, fuck it, you're just supposed to be able to walk. I'd like to be able to hop up ledges. I'd like to be able to climb or run faster than 2 miles a day, but hey it was not anywhere near the central focus of the gameplay.
So. I am just saying that when a person spends shorter amounts of time on the less important aspects of a project I do not take offense.

I like you, JK, but I think you'd have to be so fucking stupid to think you were going to get good gunplay out of Mirror's Edge. I mean I didn't even know guns were in the game at all until I played the demo. And then 80% of the demo is basically constructed around telling you "hey, you should run" and "sticking around to shoot people is fucking dumb you fucking dumb dumbfuck."
So really, I think any complaints about Mirror's Edge's gameplay are completely baseless. If you were required to duke it out with 120 guards at the end of the game with guns or something, that's one thing. But I'm assuming that's not the case here. So, being a mere "option" without forcing you to putz around with the gunplay, there is no valid complaint.

Well thank god they implemented a gameplay element, and then fucked it over royally. How top notch of them.
Solid A++ would play again.

No, because they speak to entirely different motives.
For them to have consciously left the guns out of the game, it would be about creating a game with that in mind. Yeah.
But including the guns, consciously, but half-assing it, speaks differently of their motives and actions. They provide the choice, but gimp it.
It's not that guns are ineffective. It's not that they're gimped. It's that they opinion is that they play badly. There's a major difference.
I hardly recognize other states as it is.
Geography was never my strong suit.
My strong suit was my metal tuxedo!
They haven't banned threesomes involving gerbils and strategically placed celery sticks, so there is that.
This is gold.
