Basically story-oriented role playing games, instead of dress-your-virtual-doll-and-find-the-jumbo-potatoes "RPGs".

Like for fuck sakes, I have way more fun reading a totally rail-roaded choose-your-adventure book game than with GOTY shits.

Or please point me at your favorite choose-your-adventure mobile-books, I love them. Or good AI-DMs, I tried one once and didn't really like it.

No, I can't join an IRL TTRPG group cuz where I live :cri: and I don't like to talk to my computer either.


Edit: Dang, thank you all!

      The problem with crpgs for someone looking for narrative driven stuff is that, even though they have great expansive stories, they're also hard as shit until you spend 100 hours learning tabletop rules lol

        Most if them do have a story mode at least which makes combat virtually unlosable. Though at that point it could be pretty boring unless you are that into the story. I definitely do agree though, I've put down so many crpgs cause I'd have to read a goddamn novel to understand the mechanics and some are also just walls of text like Pillars of Eternity 1 and the gameplay to story ratio is off for me
