Topic	What is the best story told in a video game?

Xenoblade Chronicles 1 Radiant Historia Suikoden 1 and 2 Baten Kaitos Origins Spec Ops: The Line NieR Automata Exit Fate I'd say those are the best stories I've seen in video gaming I still haven't gotten around to playing Planescape: Torment, but from what I've heard it's probably up there, too. I do really like the stories of all the games I've played on that list. I haven't played Baten Kaitos or Exit Fate, but I'll have to check them out based on that list. Planescape is also on my list. I actually own it and started it up a few months ago, but didn't get very far. Idk why, but it's hard for me to get into isometric RPGs. I'll give it another try though, because it is consistently praised as one of the best stories in video games. DirtBasedSoap posted... the last of us part I & II nothing really even comes close Definitely enjoyed the story of both of these myself. LinkPizza posted... I like a bunch. But I liked Horizon Zero Dawn. Especially the Vantage Point Story. Still makes me cry... I recently beat this one myself. I really liked the premise, the setting, etc. I particularly liked the DLC portion of the story. I think it fell short for me though because I found almost all the characters to be stale. I'm not sure if it was due to the writing or lazy acting, but the characters just felt like actors and it broke a lot of the immersion for me. Still enjoyed a lot about it and plan to pick up the sequel! I definitely see a lot of potential in this series. YoukaiSlayer posted... You wake up in some sort of space prison, a donnie darko lookin rabbit head guy is freeing you and says you must kill the jailers, if you do that, you'll be free. The game is a series of boss fights (like 12 or so) separated by short walking sections where the rabbit dude explains stuff about the next jailor. As you proceed through the game you start to realize there might be a very good reason you are locked in a crazy space prison and that maybe your escape won't be such a good thing. When you finally escape, it all becomes clear, and then you have 2 options which leads to 2 different endings. The moment you escape though is probably like, the best reveal in gaming. The music, the...truth of what happens, the last fight still being fresh in your mind. It's a magical moment and I don't want to spoil it. The game in general is really fun, really hard, and has god tier music. Highly recommend. Whole thing probably takes 5-10 hours your first time depending on how quickly you master the fights. That sounds pretty cool! I'll add it to my list. <cite>JigsawTDC posted [p:946957844] in What is th...
