Gaming - Gameplay vs Story+ - View Post

I would take excellent gameplay with no story over excellent story with no gameplay. A game with no gameplay isn't really a game, is it? It's more of a movie that gives you pieces of control a few times. A game with no story on the other hand can provide the player with a variety of different experiences. You get better challenges, the subsequent accomplishment, exploration, learning enemies, learning worlds, etc.

I guess the question could really be phrased as "Do you like movies or video games?"


Thing is, there are games with poor gameplay but awesome story that couldn't actually be movies or books. So no, games with little gameplay are still games.
