Ok, so if anyone here remembers the pre-release hype DL was getting, you'll likely understand what I'm getting at. They were saying that DL was going to have this big focus on story, saying how different from the other games it would be. And then the game came out, and it turned out to be a lot of similar looking corridors, with a few lines of text between the missions.
I'm not knocking on the game, I still play it, and I think STS absolutely nailed the character customization aspect. But I don't really see much of story focus that got so much attention back when the game was being released. To me, it feels like PL and SL have a much better story than DL, despite DL nominally being the most serious of the three.
