Braid is pretty good - certainly better than DKC. Whether the same methods that work in movies work in games isn't my issue - my issue is that we're lowering standards for storytelling in games compared to other media like movies. Perhaps games need to create better delivery methods for their stories, but I'm not going to hold them to a poor standard just because they currently suck as storytelling vehicles. 

Yeah, no.

Another pretentious indie game.


People like to throw the word pretenious around at anything that attempts to convey knowledge or insight nowadays. I guess college textboks are now pretentious too?  I think peeoples ego's just want to avoid having to acknlowedge the intellectual rift between them and of others, whether they be great artists or scientists. The fact is Braid had a better story than DKC - how you can even argue otherwise is beyond me.
