Extremely Entertaining
I didn’t play Crab Toss yet but in near future it may happen. While whole thing lacks proper way to immerse players into story I must agree that it’s really enjoyable. Maybe it’s nothing but I had so much fun going with bunch of players and hunting Veteran Karkas. Achievement with swimming goggles made my day

The story is all around you, if you pay attention. Listen to what the NPCs are saying, participate on the events, read the books there are at Southsun Cove. The stories are told by the characters’ daily activities, by the environment, by the objects. Kiel won’t go straight to you and tell you everything with walls of text (hopefully).
Reading the news feed adds even more depth to the story.
I find it quite amusing. It is the best way to tell a story in a game, in my opinion.

Yeah this is the opposite of that. Just by walking around I can figure out why people are angry, why these conflicts are arising and even a hint (read: outright reveal) at who is behind a lot of the trouble. This is far more interesting and yes, entertaining, than the first stage of Flame & Frost.
I didn’t really like Flame & Frost personally, dunno why. But this…I like this.
Ye southsun is pretty fun. Crab toss is crazy. Tried it twice but it’s not my thing. No big deal, I’ve got GWAMM, titles are not important for me. Backpieces though …

I like this story a bit more than the Flame and Frost, although I did like that one, just not as much. This one seems very close to reality, sort of Jurassic Parkish. Big corporation’s businsess venture turns bloody on a tropical island resort, tourists getting eaten, bikini babes, furry naked Charr – what more could you ask for?

Gotta remember that this takes place RIGHT after F&F. The displaced refugees found a new home during the chaos but it wasn’t what they had hope for. All the events, the notes and the recent Canach’s story show’s what has been going on. It’s well done because it continues F&F and doesn’t spoon feed the players the story, we as players have to find the clues and figure it out.
