Well you can get the hell out of my thread then.

You were proven wrong. :)

How so? You said there were "tons" of games that proved me wrong. Name them.

I don't know how you'd weigh a video game, but if you'd rather list 2,000 lbs worth of games, that's fine too.

Continuing to troll.

When one party resorts to trolling, they know they've lost. They realized they have no point. And the other party is shown to probably have a more compelling argument :)

Alright. We've had our fun but it's really time to stop.

Looking at your account raises a few red flags. I noticed your age and assumed that you were just another 16 year old kid who liked to show off how good they were at ripping apart arguments that nobody made, but then I noticed your sign up date. And I doubt you made your account at 5 years old.

If you're a troll, you can chock me up as another successfully trolled victim. If you're a pseudo-intellectual, you can add me to your list of defeated opponents. But if you are a real user, then you're welcome to take the discussion elsewhere.

Yawn. You're the one who started trolling. And I have had an account since I was five. My uncle created it for me.

You started trolling by taking the word ton literally. When you have a real argument then please try to use it. Until then. Continue being autistic as hell and transferring that onto others by accusing them of being trolls and pseudos.

Also.. you are an absolute creep. I haven't looked at your profile or post history or anything and I never would and as soon as you give up and stop responding, in effect admitting you were wrong from the start, I will forget you entirely.

Seriously. You are creepy as hell.

That shut him up lol.

your infallible troll persona is fantastic and one of the best things about this site

but i can't grasp how you manage to fool anyone

what is your secret

MGS2? Story wasn't terrible but the whole gameplay thing seemed a lot better and less overly-complicated than the shit about simulations.

I'd say competitive, arcade and sandbox games.

I'd say h-games and what-have-you have no real need for a story

A lot of retro games focused on gameplay more than story. Descent is one of my favorite examples, the story is 90% contained in a briefing at the very beginning of the game, then you get free rein on what you do after that.

That was quite a vicious attitude from sharpnova, but going by her/his previous threads regarding loneliness and being disconnected it's safe to assume this is what causes that dark energy to emerge in her posting style.

Not a guy, utter moron.

Games from the golden age of gaming. Basically majority of games from the 80s or 90s focused on the gameplay, with exception of perhaps the adventure game genre, which was story-centric. Basically when games were at their best.

Lol you act mean towards girls so you will have an excuse for why they don't like you :)

Actually, I (and most men) act mean towards girls because ironically, it makes them like us more. They're that stupid.

GTA V
We can just fuck shit up

To not continue off-topic shit flinging I'll just put Dragon's Dogma on the list. Grab a party of peeps and kill stuff while leveling and ignore the story with glee.

Doom! Both the new and old. Pretty much any racing games. Arcade games. Puzzle games. A ton of games really...

My all-time favorite 80s games Lode Runner and Rogue have virtually no plotlines but they're both outstanding. Much as I actually liked Cladun's story I have to admit that it wasn't very necessary for the type of game it was.

I think Shadow of the Colossus does something very interesting in regards to narrative. There are virtually no words and the events don't progress in a way that gives it much complexity, if any, but when I originally tried to criticize the story I realized that the wordless, event-less narrative is how real feelings work for most animals. Weird comparison, but when you think about what it's like for two wolves in a pack to spend their whole lives together it kind of makes sense that the bond is built through shared experiences rather than specific events or conversations that can be identified. This is definitely the case with Agro, As it is with the Companion Cube, Maria in Silent Hill 2, Ellie in The Last of Us, the list goes on. But Shadow of the Colossus does this in a very natural way that puts you in silent but beautiful isolation. In a way, the interaction with the LACK of dialogue or plot points is what makes it what it is.

Garry's Mod is a great example. It has 0% story and is 100% a sandbox game.

Really? Half-Life? I always thought Half-Life and Half-Life 2's story was one of the most interesting and important things about the series.

99% of shooters, most are just run and gun anyway with preset outcomes.
