Adding to that: what about non native english speakers that don't have the luxury of games being translated in their language? I found that quite unconsidered in Alpha Protocol but even more so from a non American developer. Having to simultaneously understand what the npc says and what your dialog options are, creates an enormous disadvantage for people who might need to read a sentence twice before they can be confident that they fully understood its message. I find that that becomes a huge flaw when the game is depended on dialog.
