It's slightly easier in the sequel because there's a visual indication of how much your chicken has been tenderized. Button Mashing: Tenderizing chicken meat can come across as this in a hurry, since a perfect order requires exactly six hits of the tenderizing key.Art Evolution: The food in the first game were fairly simple cartoony drawings, but in the sequels they're drawn more realistically with more details, and with the sheer number of new foods added to the game, it's not easy playing the game without feeling hungry.While all this is mentioned throughout CSD2 in the form of flavor text and emails, CSD3 throws you right into the thick of it.
