if you wanna tell a fast story with great visuals and all that stuff,you need a linear game,because the more freedom in a game(non linearity)the more it will destroy the intense of story telling and gameplay because people will do some experiments,they will try to undermine gameplay,try to cheat,analyze the AI.


If you want to create a great gaming experience and try to appeal on peoples intelligence and imagination and curiosity than non linearity is the better way.(but completely useless if you make a game with a movie license.non linearity will
give the gamer the chance to change the story line of the movie and the gamer will be dissapointed)

Compared to movies:Linearity= hollywood blockbusters(don't use your brain,react and be impressed)
non linearity=hitchcock movie.suspense,no effects,use your brain,who dunnit?,be surprised.
