My wife just finished those two games in a couple weeks and she absolutely loved the roller coaster of emotions Part 2 gave her.

That's honestly quite good. Dump FFX but.

Suikoden games get no love. Personally, Suikoden V has such an awesome story.

Disco Elysium is the best writing in a video game format. But I guess it's more of a character driven game. A synopsis of the story may sound dull or meandering

X had a great story. The twist is the best part too.

Suikoden II should replace FFX. I know some about FFX. It seems bs but I do like it more than viii actually.

Most of the story is how it's told IMO. If I just tell you what happens in The Tell Tale Heart it would be pretty boring but god damn it's a good read (no seriously if you've never read it before read it now it won't even take that long. https://poestories.com/read/telltaleheart )

It says right here in Matthew 16:4 "Jesus doth not need a giant Mecha."

VIII's story is...very...strange. At first its cool up until the assassination attempt and then everything went bonkers.

I agree. I'm just thinking that since people are proposing and agreeing on games like FF6 in this topic then by 'story' they mean a spectacular series of events more than like dialogue

Tales from the Borderlands is probably my favorite game story of the last decade.

Anyway.

This is what I'd consider peak story driven video games. Not necessarily the best writing, but if you're looking to get sucked into an immersive story this is what I'd recommend.

  1. Guardian Tales
  2. Planescape: Torment
  3. Disco Elysium (this game is basically Planescape: Torment without the stupid combat)
  4. Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together
  5. Spec Ops: The Line
