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!
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
Yeah, and I'm saying that as a huge fan of the genre
