With this final playthrough I have lost intrest in playing the "good guy" all the main character does is whine about his life any way so why do I care if it gets worse for him or not. This game has distanced me so much that I just don't really care about anything anymore. The most emotion I had in this game is when one of the officers wanted to finish a book and I made him work and then he was K.I.A but other than that I just lost interest. I don't think I'll be finishing this game.

The second playthrough of This is the police had some more interesting dialogue. However at one point you have to choose whether or not to help your deputy "escape" the mafia. Although I think really was the choice if he lives or dies. But after the decision is when the interesting bits happen. You now have the choice to ignore crimes for money or to send people to help them in non police matters. ALl the while getting paid extra for the jobs. Here I have just been playing along with the mafia as it seems with the game that getting money is the ultimate goal and the fact of the matter is that I have not come across any "real" consequences for these actions. Especially when the game's only way of punishing you is telling you that they escaped in one frame and that someone maybe got killed in another. Its all very distancing and I honestly don't feel a lot from this game when it comes to making the choices because of that. Even more so that there is now a mechanic to kill off your officers in fake investigations. But I am still somewhat early I think and will play further to see what happens.

This is the police plays like a movie. Each day comes with its own cutscenes that run for quite some time. Each one giving that much more insight to the life of Jack the Police Chief. The beginning of the game you are given choices that affect the newspapers of the next day. So far I don't understand the significance of the papers but I am only a little bit into the beginning of the game. While the player isn't confronted with many ethical choices at day 5, I can see the story unraveling if just a bit concerning corruption and greed that is in the police force. But at this point in time I can't say much else for the game as far as ethical issues but I can't wait to play more to see the real story unravel.
