Not necessarily complex but a good storyline must have some deeper meaning to raise it above the average action flicks dominating hollywood right now. A good storyline must also have developed characters, must be original and non predictable and have an overall storyarch that is engaging. If you took away the gameplay from Zelda TP or Uncharted and simply released them as movies they would fail, miserably. And that says quite a lot considering that you're average holywood storyline is quite shallow as it is. Purely as story's TP and Uncharted are quite bad. |
A game's story does not need to be original to be good. It just has to be interesting and engaging with twists and turns to keep you guessing until the end. TP and Uncharted's stories are actually pretty good. Many critics praised Uncharted's story if I remember correctly
