Games don't need stories.

I guess I'd like to see more story in games if 99.999% of them didn't suck ass. Games just need to tell the story through the world instead of craptacular cutscenes with horrible lines.

Until they get people who can write beyond the 3rd grade level, the less story in games the better. There's notable exceptions, but the fact that a passingly decent story is "notable" speaks about the unending mountain of shit that is video game "story"
