Aside from a few colorful characters, UNIST's overall story and characters are rather bland and boring. Add this on top of a very complex and convoluted plot makes for a rather boring venture. Thankfully the main focus for UNIST is it's combat, and that it certainly gives out in spades. With such a robust and familiar combat system mixed with interesting new mechanics, it rightful earned it's EVO spot.
The second actual fighting game that I also happened to only play the AMAZING training mode, Chronicle, and Arcade mode. It's super cool and light novel-ish and I LOVE IT. I remember being on a college trip in high school where I saw a couple of guys playing this game and I exploded in excitement, they were actually nice to let me play and I wish to do the same for others when I get to the point to be able to. This was my favorite fighting game only to be usurped by the bag of which this cast is apart of. Steam automatically updated it to Cl-r I just wanna go back to the barely changed Uni[st]. Good memories with this one :^) good ones..
