Posted December 21, 2015 Bioshock Infinite. I remember being so overwhelmed and confused by the story at times, and then the ending was just super impressive. Fallen London might not be a video game exactly, but the world is so deep and rich and it's full of top-quality writing. Though even talking about the storylines is spoilery, given that the fun of the game comes mostly from sorting them all out, so...I can't contribute much here, haha. Share this post Link to post
Posted December 21, 2015 Gonna add my 2 cents here to nominate Ace Attorney as some of the best storytelling I've ever read... Or at least the Phoenix trilogy. Share this post Link to post
Posted December 22, 2015 Okami/Okamiden Any Legend of Zelda game (especially Majora's Mask) OFF Undertale Most well known RPGmaker games Super Paper Mario A few of my extremely biased recommendations, most I own, others I've watched playthroughs of on YouTube due to my inability to own them.

Posted December 22, 2015 I agree that Portal was amazing. Ive really enjoyed the Walking Dead so far (on season 1 Ep 4) and The Witcher series as well Share this post Link to post
Posted April 12, 2016 Many people mention Final fantasy 7 but I think Final fantasy 8 was the best for me because it created that fantasy feel of strange environments, warped story line very strange creatures and very beautiful characters with extreme sense of fear that the tale contains. Final fantasy 7 is a brilliant game but its overrated and made 8 lack any further production even low ff8 made more of a profit which is a shame for ff8 fans. Bloodborne- has a fantastic story line very deceiving Metal gear solid- tell a very unique story line with beautiful characters and something for everyone. Dead Space was a scary and shocking in most parts other games worth playing are, dark souls, gears of war, street, fighter zelda I could keep going lol Share this post Link to post
Posted April 12, 2016 I think Stardew Valley looks like a pretty good story line. I haven't played it, but I've watched a couple of my friends stream it and it looks pretty good. Share this post Link to post
Posted April 13, 2016 Of course I'm going to say Mother 3. The story is so fleshed out and captivating and it's just amazinggg Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time/Darkness/Sky had an amazing story too. And The Binding of Isaac isn't really story centric but its lore fascinates me for some reason. Share this post Link to post
Posted April 13, 2016 Dragon's Dogma. There is just so much lore and it has such an in-depth and detailed plot and every time I play it I see something new and....it's just soooo good! Danganronpa. That game just......wow. Share this post Link to post
Posted April 17, 2016 I don't play that many story centric games so I have to say GTA V, which is, in my opinion, utterly brilliant. The movie vibe to it, how it's still so easy to follow even when doing the side missions at the same time and just how the whole game just flows. Sexist vibe and jokes apart, it's an amazing game all in all. Share this post Link to post
Posted December 20, 2019 I think my favorite video game story-wise is Soma... it had a really interesting story that I was not expecting. Share this post Link to post
Posted December 23, 2019 I adore the story in Hotel Dusk: Room 215 and its sequel, Last Window: The Secret of Cape West. The moment I stepped into those games, they hooked me in for days. I'm usually not a very emotional person, but good golly did the ending of Last Window very nearly make me burst into tears. I also absolutely worship Shadow of the Colossus, it has a really minimalist story that leaves a lot up to the players' imagination, but I don't mind it at all. I love coming up with theories and story ideas of my own to fill in the blanks. And what little story the game has is told in a beautiful way that toys with my emotions so hard.

Posted November 25, 2020 I would have to say The Last of Us franchise... if you can’t tell by my profile pic! The second game blew me away and was also amazing gameplay and mechanics-wise. Such a fun game and compelling, heart-wrenching plot with very human characters that you really, really grow to care for. Share this post Link to post

I came here literally for the express purpose of saying PMD2. This is one of the only games that genuinely makes me FEEL something I would also like to nominate Ōkami as runner up. Such a lovely game, I will never get tired of it Share this post Link to post
