I've always found the Uncharted 4/The Last Of Us/God of War 2018 to all be decent, but all those games are kinda lacking in imteresting gameplay and are basically the video game equivalents of "Oscar bait"

    Any game praised for its story.

    The gamer idea of a good story is simply having a story.

        i honestly just could never get into any of the bioshock games because the physics and movements/shooting felt clumsy. it was this weird blend of gogogogog Quake type movements but then with super particulate aiming a la PUBG.

      Okay Disco Elysium has a good story though. That being said, I think its the only game I would really consider to have a good story.

        When I would tell my friends about that game, I would literally describe the writing as 'actually good writing, not just good for a video game writing'

        There are others; like Planescape: Torment, Sunless Sea, Sunless Skies.

      So many games with 'good stories' don't work as both games and stories and it makes both bad. People go on about how Red Dead has a great story, the story being ? Trying to save up and go to Tijuana? But the in game reality is you have more money than you'd ever need in a couple of hours. In ghost of Tsushima you have to build power to defeat the mongol army, but in game as soon as you learn to parry you can easily kill hundreds of people at a time.
