VGDomain discusses the importance of a quality singleplayer
GF365: "Oftentimes, video games have characters who are antagonistic and really not very pleasant. Here are some of the friendliest characters in games where you might not otherwise expect to find them."
Talented writers can build worlds that are as wondrous as real-life. Here are the best lore-rich video games for you to get immersed in.
How'd fallout not make the list. Atleast over cyberpunk, tales , and halo. Fallout been around since what 96 98 and has 5 6 games into it. It's full of lore when you play it. I'd even add star ocean to a point.
Yes in lore. Easily missed... absolutely. Never played a game that had me loving the world and lore behind it as much as that one. Most of course wouldn't be able to experience it since it is a more difficult game.
I can't speak for all titles on this list, but by the time you get to Dark Souls III, the lore is a bloody tapestry of intricacy
Played them all. Im not saying the games on the list dont have good lore...I just think hollow knight had more lore that is hidden but present and more easily explored and accessed. The souls games have tremendous lore but theyre mostly hidden and stay that way unless you look for it and research it. The lore is not very accessible.
Crows90,
I think that's a somewhat fair assessment. For me, the Souls games are less upfront about the lore, but it does invite your fascination through NPCs, items, locations, bosses, etc. There's this kind of natural progression where the picture becomes just clear enough by doing the essential tasks, but it really makes you want to explore every inch of the world.
narration is more important than lore i'd rather watch the story and characters in a more cinematic way instead of searching for notes and stuff that's why i love sony exclusive games like uncharted and gow and hate from software games
The article was top ten lore in video games. I think they did a bad job picking games out. I know what you mean though. I just like a variety of games and genres.
The video on Black Ops 1 shows some separate rooms, assets, and other features which exist outside of the boundary of the game.
Sorry but if the game has single and multiplayer and the single player is crap the game itself 9/10 is crap bar halo for some reason i think there single player is meh but there online is amazing
Single player should always be the main focus. Unless the game comes with multiple titles in a box like when Team Fotress 2 came in The Orange Box, a primarily multi player game feels hollow.
I only ever play single player. I never touch the games that are online only.
I somewhat agree with the author. The only games seem to hold onto have an excellent story that I know I'll want to play again. Multiplayer rarely grabs my attention for long periods, when it does though they're great value. Based on the beta I expect to be playing that online for a long time.
I play single player games, don't care about online.. story + gameplay is most important..
