>Ocarina of Time
>Good story

Jesus Christ when will Nintenshitters get over their delusions

It's literally a generic save the princess plot for fucks sake.

I'd vote for Fallout 2 or maybe Thief purely because of the god tier lore, setting and backstory.

Holy shit, that was a good year.

Tactics or Xenogears

I love MGS, but I'm pretty sure 3-4 of the games near the bottom have much better stories and this is just a shitty popularity poll because not every voter played every game listed.

Xenogears > Tactics > MGS > Fallout 2 > Grim Fandango > OoT > Thief > Starcraft > Baldurs Gate > Half-Life

>OoT over Thief
>OoT not the lowest one there

KYS

>Fallout 2
>le chozun wun
>Good story

I've never seen someone read to far into something before than this.

But I am not surprised Nintenyearolds come up with this much retarded headcanon for their shitty game.

Fuck you nigger

Only game on that list I've played is OoT and I don't think it belongs that high. I'd expect it to be middle of the pack at best. It had good storytelling and the story melded well with play, but it has plot holes a plenty and a really dry, generic story.

>Only game on that list I've played is OoT and I don't think it belongs that high. I'd expect it to be middle of the pack at best
How the fuck would you know if you haven't even played the others?

Fucking underagers like yourself always try to do this.

because it's not that great of a story? if something is lukewarm at best i can assume it belongs in the lukewarm section.

It looks like Sup Forums never watched Escape from New York and has no idea how unoriginal MGS was.

Is this the most reasonable and realistic opinion on OoT ever committed to written language?

Also you should try out some of the other games on that list, you will enjoy them.

Man, it's kinda hard to believe that Half-Life came out in the same year as most of those other games. Shooters really did push the medium forward pretty hard back in the 90s and early 2000s.

>I've only played OoT...
Fuck off, Reddit
Come back when you've played more video games.

If anything I should be writing the most biased, ass-kissing post there is. OoT is the first video game I ever played to completion back in 2000.

What other games there would you suggest?

>played OoT as a kid in 2000
>isn't blinded by nostalgia and see's the game for what it's worth

Please don't listen to those other fags, Sup Forums needs more level headed posters like you.

Any game from OP's list is good, but personally I'd recommend Thief, Fallout or MGS, maybe Half Life or Baldurs Gate as well. I dunno what your interests are but those are all worth a shot. The others I haven't played myself yet.

found the real redditor

You really are a blithering idiot.

BG goes higher, but the rest is fine, really.

>Ocarina of Time over all those other games
WHAT THE FUCK is WRONG with Nintendo fans, the game barely had a fucking story let alone events happening I'm succession

Why am I a blithering idiot? For playing less video games than you? Maybe if you spent a little less time playing video games you'd see why your post is in poor taste.

Let's be perfectly honest, none of these games have a good story. The stories either sucked, or were mediocre enough to let other components of the game dazzle you.

Hi leddit

It's a popular game, so the ones who call it their favourite will claim it's story is better than other games they haven't played or don't like as much.

Xenogears, Baldur's Gate and Fallout 2 most definitely did have good stories

I see your point.

Oh? A wise guy, huh? Look, I'm tracing you right now, pal. We'll see how smart you feel with internal security all over your fricking ass. Dickhead!

>vidya
>story
>good
Pick two.

>no video game in the history of vidya has had a good story

Go to sleep, pal.

But movies, cartoons and books don't have good story either. What has good stories? Radio dramas?

No.

Tex Murphy: Overseer had a better story than all those games combined.

Even then, it's embarrassing to see Half-Life lose to all those weeb games.

All you've convinced us of is that gamers don't give a fuck about story.

BTW, did a quick search on games released in 1998.

These are the games you should be arguing about in terms of character and story:

Panzer Dragoon Saga
Oddworld: Abe's Exoddus
Metal Gear Solid
Thief
Half-Life
Grim Fandango
Black Dahlia
Sanitarium
The X-Files Game
Journeyman Project 3
Parasite Eve
Fallout 2

Shut the fuck up.

How about going and reading an actual book from a respected author then coming back and typing the same thing without a drop of irony.

It is sad at the level people will stoop for video games on artistic merit

What the fuck is your problem?

Suck a nostalgia dick, fanboy.

>Man, it's kinda hard to believe that Half-Life came out in the same year as most of those other games. Shooters really did push the medium forward pretty hard back in the 90s and early 2000s.
Yeah, 3D FPS killed almost all other genres.

I've read multiple books by many respected authors. Doesn't make those games stories bad you cuck.

>OoT has a great story

Oh yeah. That story with all those plotholes.

>Go inside my body and put an end to my curse
>lol I was dead anyway. I threw you in there for shits and giggles
>here, take this gem and DON'T throw it into an ocean or something so that Ganondorf will never get it
>Hey Link, you should go get the other gems and bring them here just like what Ganondorf wants
>Here take this Ocarina, it'll help you open the door for Ganondorf
>Whoops. Ganondorf got the Triforce? How could this happen?
>Hi, I'm Shiek, let me reveal my true identity right in the middle of Ganondorf City
>Oops
>Thanks for saving the world, Link
>Now let me turn back time so that none of this actually happens and everything you worked for was for nothing

Fuck off Egoraptor.

Is this, the most original argument, that a Nintendrone has ever come up with?

I'm currently half way through The Brothers Karamazov

You do know that comparing books with games is retarded? The same way comparing movies with books are retarded. A book has to sell it's story, because it's all it got. Movies have acting, which games don't have, both have music and asthetics. Which book has the best gameplay?

Pretty much exactly what I'd say. Xenogears was so fucking good.

No it wasn't. It was babby's first 5deep game, and the result was just a discount evangelion.

The name of the poll is "best story", not "good story" user.
It says a lot about video games as whole really.
Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Sup Forums is always right. Name one time Sup Forums was ever wrong.

>Tactics that low

REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Thought the WiiU would be a success.

Kojima can into story now?
He's just a military otaku ffs

>But I got all the recessive genes!
What did he mean by this?

That his brother got all the dominant genes.

The English translation was trash.
