Awkward lull in the conversation? Here's a quick and easy life hack: try asking them for more information on topics relating to the discussion, examining the scene for relevant clues, or even just presenting evidence to get their take on the events of the case

Computer images are pretty amazing - stuff we can see, created from data and manifested as little dots of light on a screen. Food for thought, anyway.

They have it all wrong. It goes like this

> = Positive response
v = Negative response
< = Neutral/ambivalent response
^ = Inquisitive response (not enough to change the subject of discussion, but enough to get a bit more information)

The writers of Alpha Protocol kept in mind the "three JBs" when giving the player conversation options - James Bond, Jack Bauer, and Jason Bourne - ie, a suave response, an aggressive response, and a professional response, that can be chosen in any order at different points in the conversation. Similarly, in my own conversational life hack, I can change the topic to Car Crash, Need for Speed, or even McDonalds Drive Through, simply by saying the topic in a loud voice with a raised intonation on the last syllable
