SoapBoxRacer wrote:*Here to argue*
It's not really story-telling if it's told in a non-linear fashion. It's more like story-assembling. Albeit it is a great story. But when a developer chooses to tell a story through a non-linear gameplay fashion, and not just a non-linear fashion, then it means they're doing something a little bit more and a little bit less than story-telling. More because every encounter has to be compelling and interesting. Less because there is no real main story, just events loosely placed together, and they rely upon the gameplay style to make the game come together, instead of writing a true narrative.
I'm not saying they were bad. They're some of the best Western RPG's. And I'm not saying Fallout 3's story was good. Pretty much everyone disliked the main story. But, in a way, non-linear games will always be easier to write for, because each encounter can be isolated, and each one is a small, encapsulated story based upon fetch-quests and missions.
I guess it wasn't really an argument. More of a side-note.
Commence ignoring this post.

ONE DAY THOUGH, SHE WAS FORCED TO MARRY THE EVIL NARAKU-LIKE CHARACTER, YELLOWROCK. HE WAS A SCARY MAN, WHO PUT FEAR INTO THE PEOPLE WHO LIVED IN ANIME LAND.
THERE WAS A LOWLY NINJA BOY WHO WORE ORANGE NAMED HAZ-SHI WHO LOVED THE QUEEN, BUT THE QUEEN'S BROTHER, SCISSOR-KUN, FOUND OUT ABOUT IT, AND KILLED THE LOWLY NINJA WITH A UNICORN HORN. HAZ-SHI'S BEST FRIEND, ZILLYINGTONWORTH THE III ESCAPED, VOWING REVENGE. but!! THERE WAS YET ANOTHER BOY WHO WAS A JACK-OF-ALL-TRADES NAMED TLR WHO ALSO LOVED THE QUEEN.
AT THE FAMED "anime convention" THE EVIL KING, YELLOWROCK MADE ALL HIS SUBJECTS DRESS IN N00B ANIME COSPLAY. SO TLR, DRESSED AS SPIKE FROM COWBOY BEBOP, WENT TO THE CONVENTION AND SMOTHERED THE KING WITH HIS MANY MANNEQUINS, MAKING HIM SUFFOCATE TO DEATH.
THEN THE QUEEN AND THE NEW KING, TLR, RULED OVER "ANIME LAND" AND PEACE WAS BROUGHT TO THE COUNTRY FOR YEARS TO COME.
IT IS UNKOWN WHAT SCHEMES ZILLYINGTON WORTH MAY BE PLOTTING, BUT THEY ARE CERTAINLY DARK SCHEMES THAT TOOK MUCH SCHEMING TO SCHEME THEM UP. ONE DAY. HE AND HAZ WILL RETURN TO GET THE ONE RING TO RULE THEM ALL.
BUUUUT! THAT DAY ILL NEVER COME!
Amusingly that day did eventually come and Haz came back from the Mortal again he went up to Scissor and killed him using some new fangled technology called a gun furthermore the Wizard who helped him relive again was named William it was part of a takeover plan that was put in By Zilly's and William's Scheming and so it was the Jid was removed as Queen and Haz became the 1st President of Anime Land However there was a danger afoot as the evil black knight Maskan who had fell in love with the queen wanted to take down this republic and Bring back the queen into power! would it ever happen? FIND OUT IN THE NEXT CHAPTER
sadly, even though maskan was in love with the queen, she would always be in love with TLR and nothing could change that, so maskan decided to help anyway just to make the queen happy.
Meanwhile, Revenant was a highway bandit stealing travelers' most valued possessions and giving them words of wisdom in return. He eventually amassed enough Most Valued Possessions to open his own Most Valued Possession Emporium, selling people their Most Valued Possessions back at exorbitant prices.
Will Revenant get arrested? FIND OUT IN THE NEXT EPISODE OF DRAGON BALL Z
Fix's for you Maskan
and fixed again, i'm afraid
I fixed er, I will not be left out!
