I never play games because of the story. If i want a good story i will go for books. If the gameplay and the atmosphere is fine, the game is fine (for me)

Some games have amazing stories though, and in some cases it feels like the experience wouldn't be possible as just a book.

Planescape: Torment is probably the best example I can think of, but there's many others.

Oh yeah, thanks for the reminder! I've heard amazing things about it but couldn't play it on my older mac (and considered waiting for the Switch version).

Now that I have a new macbook though, I might pick it up.
