Am i the only one that feels like this? Skyrim, Falout 4, The Last of Us were all masterpieces with exceptional story. What did they all have in common?

Not a single one of these four games had multiplayer.

Who here agrees with me 4chan?

Skyrim and Fallout's multiplayer would be relatively easy to implement without ruining the flow of the game itself.

>>334708428
Last of us has mulitplayer dude

skyrim had story? Wow

Also fallout is a fucking joke

Come on, OP I liked the game but surely that's b8

>>334708428
Make it optional?
That's the thing about console gaming. You people eat shit and the industry understands this.

How has there not been a mod to give Skyrim a better story yet? Just toss some sidequests into the main story line and rework dialogue and bam.
>>
>>334708428
Multiplayer requires a few more programmers, not writers, so if they do it right the core story wouldn't have to be jeopardized in anyway.

I mean I just browse it for cool shit, but this is just.. No, man. No.

Only decent game on there was Witcher 3, and -maybe- a little bit of TLOU.

I cant speak for witcher but the rest had mediocre stories. anyone who thinks videogames as a whole are a halfway decent medium for stories is an idiot. Even games I consider to have good stories like legacy of kain are better off just being movies

there are downloadable campaigns on nexus or loverslab I think. new characters, dialogue, a d even voice acting

That's just TES in general. Not defending Skyrim at all, it has plenty of problems, but TES stories have always had a tendency to raise further questions than actually answer them.

Fuck you, we need more co-op instead. Not enough fucking co-op anywhere, especially in split-screen form on consoles.

Story doesn't matter. It's all about game mechanics.

If the gameplay isn't good, it isn't worth playing. Walking Simulators and VNs are cancer.

No, just no. Co-op multiplayer yes, but massive multiplayer online experience? no, fuck no... especially with a T ESRB rating.

Yeah, because no one wants to buy another 60$ controller

Video games are literally bottom of the barrel when it comes to compelling storytelling. The only video game I've ever played that caused any emotional response in me was Chrono Trigger, the MGS series at different points and (barely) undertale. Video games are horribly written 96% of the time, and the characters are horribly one dimensional, for the purpose of immersing you as a player into the power fantasy they've laid before you. TV comedy shows have a more robust and interesting story than almost every video game to release today. Claiming any of these games are masterpieces is like saying my 6 year old sons drawing of a horse is equal to the Mona Lisa
>>
TW3's story sucks, especially when you compare it to TW1 and TW2.
Once you've done the red baron quest, it's generic. It's the same level as TLOU.
>>
>>334708428
Those games all have shit stories. But I agree that "story" (i.e. context and premise, character design, world building, lore, etc.) is extremely important.

Also, that multiplayer is in general fucking gay. God damn, how many tens of thousands of hours can retards pour into the same 5 arenas their entire lives? PVP is just awful and I can only enjoy it for a few hours when it feels really fresh, beyond that it's repetitive as fuck and terrible.

Co-op is where it's at though. More games need co-op, and good stories that supplement it.

I'm also sick and fucking tired of seeing people make a distinction between "gameplay" and "aesthetics" as if there is one. Newsflash, the character and world designs, context, premise / story, etc. are all a part of the game as much as the mechanics, player controls, AI, etc. It is complete bullshit to think otherwise.
>>
>>334712659
That's what I meant. Just a drop in, drop out co-op, like Saints Row.
>>
I keep seeing this on facebook
I don't get it, if you want a good story go read a fucking book or watch a movie or some shit
Pretty much most of my favourite games focus more on gameplay and less on story

The only game there with decent gameplay is Witcher, and even then

The Last of Us is the epitome of 'decent'.
Witcher gameplay is bad.
I've never even played either of them.

>>334708428
Dark Souls has multiplayer as part of the lore and it's a masterpiece.

>The Last of Us has some shitty CoD type TDM tacked onto it to add an illusion of replayability

>>334717205
Multiplayer has been the saving grace of many games.

The division is a social experiment. The amount of dickery and internet tough guys in there is astonishing. Without MP it'd been Watch Dogs Beta.
>>
>>334708428
you goddamn faggot all of those games besides last of us sucked.

shitrim was a casual pile of shit that just put in systems for aspies to enjoy

failout 4 is a even bigger pile of shit again more systems for fucking aspie retards to enjoy. i make sure i troll the shit out of retards who liked failout 4

even witcher was a goddamn blunder of epic size.

Yeah, 3 of those examples are really lacking in story.
