Yeah ABF, really I wouldn't even care about adding a story to that sort of game (though it might be interesting...). Essentially, they shouldn't have even bothered telling a story. Give you a description of what the enemy is doing and what you need to do to win, but don't bore me with 5 minutes of "I hate those Yellow Comet guys!" or "Sturm needs to go DOWN!". I mean, I gave up trying to figure out why Sturm is a bad guy, comparitivly, to begin with (he's just like everyone else, trying to take over the world), just don't even bother talking to me and let me play!
"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
