Story doesn't matter in video games
Leo Anderson
Ryder Harris
Not caring about story is just a meme. The problem is when the story gets more of the focus than the gameplay.
Eli Ward
It does not.
Dylan White
I don’t have a problem with the story taking the spotlight if it’s done well, like in Nier and Automata.
Thomas Gray
western gameplay is too garbage to not have a story focus so yes it is important
Henry Bennett
It doesn't
Those games are shit
Adam Cox
A good video game has good gameplay, story or not
if you like stories in your games, whatever but that's not what makes good games
Brayden Long
Alexander Barnes
It depends on what the game is really. Tetris doesn't have a story..
Cooper Williams
When people say story doesnt matter. They dont mean no story is a good thing. They mean that a shit game with a good story is still a garbage game.
Lucas Taylor
>Tetris
Grayson Harris
It can be a massive factor in the enjoyment of a game. It'd be more correct to say that story isn't integral to video games though.
Xavier Gutierrez
>pingus don't matter in videogames
Xavier Green
>Fires you for wanting to put a story in the game
Grayson Young
OP was not a fag today
Jace Nguyen
A modern game needs great gameplay, great story, great art style, great music and a strong idea/theme that connects it all together.
Asher White
>I watch porn for the story
Colton Nelson
Based Carmack
Adrian Reed
Depends. A game with a bad story and good gameplay is still a good game even if it's a RPG. A game with shit gameplay and good story is not a good game.
Alexander Watson
t. op
Jack Thomas
>the most story focused wolfenstein is also the worst
Nothin personnel, storyfags.
Tyler Foster
It doesn't but sometimes you play a game like Dark Messiah, and the story and characters are so bad you have to wonder.
Dominic Cox

Sebastian Green
Story matters but it should never be the most important thing in a GAME as GAMES are interactive media.
Gameplay >setting/story>artstyle/graphics/aesthetic>sound design>replay ability>multiplayer
Brandon Harris
wtf no. bad taste.
Gameplay>ReplayAbility>Graphics/Aesthetic/Artstyle>Sound Design>Multiplayer>Story/Setting
Matthew Perry
>video games doesn't matter in life
Kevin Morgan
objectively false. Some of the best games ever are only good for 1 or 2 playthroughs
Benjamin Cox
>if you want story, go read a book!
>if you want fanservice, go watch porn!
>if you want good music, go listen to a CD!
>if you want good visuals, go to an art gallery!
Adam Ward
>he thinks story doesn't matter

Come now user, I'm sure you're capable of pressing the button built into Sup Forums itself that will just give you the answer for free. I truly believe that you are capable of clicking it.
Ian Hill
I should expect this kind of garbage taste from a sonicnigger but I'm still kind of disgusted a bit.
Juan Sanders
That's not true. Especially for games with multiple interesting routes, hack n slash, survival with perma death (think oregon trail, organ trail, zombie u).
Hunter Jackson
Game play > Music > Atmosphere > Everything else.
Jeremiah Russell
Then post your taste.
Zachary Bailey
Hundreds of games with absolutely atrocious stories would like a word with you. Motivation matters and story is just one way some games provide that. Others use characters, setting, gameplay or other tactics like loot.
Joshua Lewis
>tetris doesn't have a story
Wrong
Jayden Barnes
It's not that it doesn't matter, other aspects are just more important, like gameplay.
Eli Ortiz
Gameplay > Music > graphics >Story
Everything else is trying to rationalize out of the ass aspects that are contained within these four.
David Gonzalez
If the stories are bad and that makes the games worse, that would prove that story matters in games.
Hunter Johnson
>graphics mattering whatsoever
Replace that with art design and then maybe we can start discussing the order in which you've ranked them.
Thomas Thomas
You have a point. I still think it's better to go into specifics.
Josiah Bell
Consider Monster Hunter World- That game has a story that simply doesn't give a shit. They could have just as well not had one at all and saved some money and the game would be just as good.
The story doesn't add anything to the game but it also doesn't really hurt it a great deal because that's not why you play that game.
Nathan Flores
Name enough to not make it look like cherrypicking.
Anthony Cook
When a game has a story that actively detracts from the experience like in most jap games is when we start having a problem. A well thought out story can only benefit a game.
