I can never resist an icon meme.

Also, it gives me an excuse to use this icon, so you know.

1. Reply to this post with "HOMEWORK SUCKS", and I will pick five of your icons.
2. Make a post (including the meme info) and talk about the icons I chose.
3. Other people can then comment to you and make their own posts.
4. This will create a never-ending cycle of icon glee.

Honestly, I thought Continuum Shift was actually a really big improvement over Calamity Trigger in terms of storytelling, but I'd still recommend borrowing it and/or buying it used. The storylines are a lot tidier in terms of presentation, there's not as many side paths and things that you have to play through to get 100% completion, and many of the gag routes are honestly funny and charming. The story in general also picked up a bit in terms of being something I even vaguely care about.

Of course, there's a lot of confusing bullshit tied in with it too. My main complaint about the CS story mode, though, is that it's SO FUCKING LONG. There is a ton of talking and not much fighting. YOU'RE NOT MAKING A VISUAL NOVEL, GUYS, YOU'RE MAKING A FIGHTING GAME. Jesus. Oh, and I can't stand how you have to watch the "Help Me, Dr Kokonoe!" segments after getting a character's bad end. I DON'T CARE ABOUT YOUR STUPID SIDE SEGMENTS JESUS CHRIST. Just let me play the damn game.

So yes, I wrote you a freakin' novel in order to give you what ultimately wound up being an extremely lukewarm endorsement! I was going to link you to videos of its arcade mode because seeing Hazama be a glorious douchebag was actually what convinced me to buy the game, but I...can't find the videos anymore :| So.

Hahaha, it's all good! I like to hear this kinda stuff before I go out and attempt to drop money on another game. Especially about the story mode, geez. I didn't even finish the story mode in CT. Trying to get 100% completion was asking for the impossible from me. ;;

And I think Arc just needs to make a visual novel and get it out of their system, lol.
