yeah, it's a sequel. you even see [spoiler]the family[/spoiler] worshipping [spoiler]jack, the protagonist from bs1[/spoiler]. it was a far better game and all but like, yeah. ten years down there just makes no sense as to why people still survive. although i guess all-in-all it was probably no worse than living in eastern europe. still though, it felt odd to just be eating the same snack cakes from the first game. all jokes aside, twinkies are really only good for a few months tops, so i guess it's good that i was a big daddy and didn't really acknowledge the fact that i was eating nothing but mold. that and like, finding dead cats in places that suggest that they were being cared for beforehand was odd; it was trying to go for that kind of 'sudden crisis turns into hell' thing like all of the -shocks, but with ten years down there in paulville it was kind of stretched.
