Gameplay isnt the most important thing in games.

It isn't a video game...

Not that that was really the point...Nobody has said that you don't need any gameplay, but does it need to be priority #1 on every game that comes out? No.

Well, many things are important, but good games can exist without good graphics or music, but not without good gameplay. Even if people here are easy to dismiss the gameplay of Walking Dead or Journey: it is actually good, it works well.

Just working doesn't make gameplay good. The gameplay isn't the draw of those games. Nobody is buying Journey going "thank god, I've always wanted a walking simulator!".

The gameplay takes a back seat in games like The Walking Dead. The gameplay is there mostly because it needs to be. Does that stop those types of games from being great? Of course not, because gameplay doesn't always need to be the most important part.
