I'm a sucker for a good story, one of the reasons why I love games and writing, makes me appreciate that fact that I have an imagination, an amazing one as well.
I think it’s safe to say I truly appreciate the importance of storytelling, everyone can relate to stories, stories can evoke all form of human emotion, as A player, I don’t think I really strong story makes the game, it’s how the story is told, the construction of each character and the emotional bonds that are attached to you while you play, it’s their story and yours, making it that more personal.
I well built character and half decent story should always succeed, stories make thing interesting, as you go on the journey with the character, you want to help them achieve their goals, discover the truth, when they cry you cry, stories have an unimaginable amount of power. A perfect example being “ final fantasy” even though the world ending plot has been told a million times, it’s still as strong if not stronger than the last time it was told, these stories remind me that I’m still human, I have feelings, some people tend to forget about their compassion, and stories I think are a good reminder, tragedy, which almost everyone has gone through makes a good story because it’s something everyone can relate to, or friendship, the strength you discover when you realise that you have friends that believe in you. All games have stories, it’s just that it’s hard to discover them based on what type of genre it is or if the story has been told well enough.
Storytelling is ACE !
