A lot of people voted last time and today should be another good one, its 13 Sentinels. How would you rate the story on a scale of 1 to 10, 1 being the lowest and 10 being the highest?

Might be recency bias since I beat it a month or two ago, but man, it's great. The format almost guarantees no two players experience the story the same way. There are some minor nitpicks I could make, but nothing that makes me think less of it. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

I don't really want to give a rating because I don't want to try and justify to myself a score, but I will just say I was satisfied by the ending and given the scope and situation of the story, that impresses me a lot.

Basically what Leon said. The story is excellent, and the storytelling format is super cool. While I also agree with what Mac has in spoilers I don't dock it any points for that. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? ... Copied to Clipboard!

8/10
Very tough to rate this one. On one hand it's mind-boggling that a story of its complexity even exists.There's SO MUCH going on, so many moving parts: thirteen main characters and plot lines; time travel to multiple periods of alt-history and the future; tons of sci-fi gimmicks like cloning and body-hopping... And somehow it all holds together well. I want to give it a 10/10 for the effort and craftsmanship alone. But on the other hand, I have to admit that the story wasn't as gripping as I'd hoped it would be. The early world-building and character introductions tended to drag, and by the time I reached some of the bigger payoffs at the mid-and-late stages of the game, they didn't deliver the mindblow that I'd expect from a long-awaited revelation. I think the game's non-linear progression hurt it in this regard, because choosing certain characters before others would cause the game to tip it's hand at times. Overall, while the game was consistently intriguing, I never felt like a true page-turner. And while I liked all of the characters, I can't say that I loved any of them other than Ogata, Yuki, and maybe Amiguchi. That's said, it's a one-of-a-kind story that takes advantage of the gaming medium, and I hope we see more games like it. --- ~Jacksonville Jaguars~ ... Copied to Clipboard!

It does a lot of things right. I'd give it a 10 but there's a few core things that the game doesn't handle too well. --- Bitto I feel completely refreshed. Like I just put on fresh underwear on New Year's Day. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Fun ride, but the end result/overall picture is not as good as the journey. Some character stories are much better than others: they weave together to form a good overarching story, but this doesn't save --- while you slept, the world changed ... Copied to Clipboard!

One of the best payoffs in games. However, it does have some points that drag a little. Evillordexdeath posted... What if generic anime but Cloud Atlas That sounds awesome though. --- I just decided to change this sig. Blaaaaaaargh azuarc ... Copied to Clipboard!

I would say this is the best story in a video game that not a VN out there. And yes I guess if you wanted to be cheeky you could say this is a VN too...but I'll grasp at my straws, dammit! --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

If there was ever a game that proved that the VN label is meaningless, its this one. Its not a VN at all, its half RTS half point and click adventure, its missing the novel part of visual novel. These days people just use the term to mean any Japanese game with a story, just silly really.
Its less of a visual novel than most Final Fantasy games! --- I just decided to change this sig. Blaaaaaaargh azuarc ... Copied to Clipboard!

VN has basically come to mean a game that's heavy on the story, light on the gameplay.

People started getting cocky about throwing out the VN label when it was suddenly incorrectly deemed OK to call AA, DR, and ZE games visual novels.
