Wayne is so much easier than Batman
welcome to watchmojo.com and still be
counting down our picks for another top
ten video games with great stories once
more we’re interested in games where the
story is not only one of the strongest
elements but it itself is also
well-crafted and constantly engaging
ranking our choice is not just on how
well-written the story is but also how
its conveyed to the player if you didn’t
see a game you think should be on this
list be sure to check out our first list
on this topic so if you’ve got any
reservations whatsoever about this plan
now would be a tremendous time to Voisin
number 10 Dragon Age Inquisition tell me
why we shouldn’t kill you now
the Conclave is destroyed everyone who
attended is dead a noble question of
fantasy realm it’s familiar yet expertly
done here as the third installment of
Bioware’s ongoing Dragon Age series this
game presents quite the ominous
situation a massive rift opens
unleashing demons upon the continent of
datas right into the midst of two
ongoing civil wars
we call it the breach it’s a massive
rift into the world of demons that grows
larger with each passing hour your
character the appointed Inquisitor is
sent to investigate the reason for the
rifts opening while also attempting to
resolve all kinds of problems in the
land isn’t closing the breach the more
pressing issue what keeps the game
structured is the inquisitors presence
and active participation in the events
helping to shape the fate of the world
you say it may be the key to doing what
closing the breach whether that’s
possible is something we shall discover
shortly number 9 Xenoblade Chronicles
Destiny’s got nothing on us at least
that’s the core theme of Xenoblade
Chronicles a game all about the endless
conflict between two races the Machine
asked mekin and the human-like homs you
come on take care of things here
don’t to us his breath to persuade me
Khan in the middle is a boy named shock
who takes up the legendary monado sword
and embarks on a quest to avenge his
fallen friend
shulk’s desire for closure would be
compelling enough but the game also
throws in budding relationships and the
idea of subverting expectations
my visions appear suddenly without
warning at first they’re obscure then as
it gets closer to the event I start to
understand it seems we possess a Power
greater than I the result is a
bittersweet yet inspiring tale that we
can all get behind have you been to see
Tommen yeah
I just can’t do it you got more guts
than me not at all it was him that
consoled me number eight Planescape
torment for as often as it’s used in
storytelling at neva can be a
magnificent tool when properly
implemented such as the case with this
1999 role-playing game based on Dungeons
& Dragons in which players take control
of a man known only as the nameless one
our memory challenge hero ventures into
the multiverse of Planescape befriending
odd people and recovering his past
piece-by-piece
Planescape torment manages to balance a
constantly moving plot and a need to
make the main character compelling and
there’s still room for player choice in
all of that
number seven final fantasy 6
the winds die the seas rage the earth
decays and this is the epitome of an
epic picture this it’s a world where
magic and technology have merged but the
resulting magitek is in the hands of the
evil gas Stalin Empire with only a small
resistance group to prevent world
domination it’s quite the premise but
what seals the deal is the game’s
willingness to slow down and build to
the on inspiring turmoil whether it’s an
opera sequence or the literal end of the
world grand and emotionally charged
moments are the draw here number six
The Witcher series I’m a Witcher heard
you wondering about my swords well ones
for monsters the other for humans dark
fantasy just got a bit more complex set
in the medieval round from Andrzej
Sapkowski book of the same name the
witcher follows the continuing
Adventures of Geralt a monster hunter
drawn into larger military and political
conflicts just so we’re clear on this I
was not eager to go into battle but full
test is not someone you refuse the
intrigue raised by each games made
conflict ranging from hunting
kingslayer’s to halting invasion forces
is matched by Garrels personal quest to
regain his lost memories some clue to
grab on to something that allowed me
recover my memory plus there’s more than
a little bit of romance to go around
number five to the moon
houston we have a problem this game made
us all choked up to the moon focuses on
the Sigmund Corporation a company
pioneering in the field of memory
manipulation which they use to give
dying hospital patients their life’s
wishes two of the Corporations employees
dr. Etta and Neil are tasked with
granting one such man his final request
to go to the moon
what follows is an introspective tale
about the nature of memory and the power
of luck as the game moves towards its
effecting finale
number four Grim Fandango
sorry for the wait mr. Flores I am ready
to take you now death is no cakewalk
that’s for sure
developed by the famed company LucasArts
this Day of the Dead themed adventure
distinguishes itself with its quirky
narrative anything about your past you
haven’t told me quite a bit considering
I’ve told you nothing this is the story
of Manny Calavera a travel agent from
the department of death gets wind of a
plot to steal eternal rewards from the
dead I think someone is robbing these
poor naive souls of the rightful
destinies leaving them no option to
march on a treacherous Trail of Tears
many embarks on a years-long quest for
answers bringing him face to face with
odd characters while steadily evolving
into a hero where it’s rooting for it’s
a character driven piece that is at once
odd and endearing we’re all in little
boxes back home max Six Feet Under
now you’re talking like the town car
Manny cut it out number three Red Dead
Redemption here’s the same no good deed
goes unpunished
throughout the surprising downtrodden
world of Red Dead Redemption
this saying seems to ring really true as
it turns out it’s you or me the way I
see it might as well be you our hero is
John Marston a former outlaw in the Old
West dragged out of retirement to hunt
down his old gang members or risk the US
government going after his family what
do you want Marston my family I’ve done
what you asked no you haven’t this is
the land of opportunity and I gave you
the opportunity to save your family and
you failed Marsten’s journey to right
the wrongs and protect his kin is noble
yet bittersweet largely because the
story continually shows that good
intentions aren’t always enough to
change the world
number two Chrono Trigger back to the
future and then back to the past and
then other time periods for good measure
in Square Enix’s 1995 classic time
travel and weirdness abound as the
teenager chrono and his friends embark
on an epic quest to avert a dystopian
future and stop a giant omnipotent
termite the stories use of time hopping
allows it to not only explore different
eras but also present a wide cast of
characters and engaging situations to
say nothing of the increasing sense of
wonder at the games scope before we
unveil our top pick here are a few
honorable mentions oh it’s you you know
how it’s been a long time a city on the
verge of greatness a new type of city
based not on the man but on the
automobile the common symbol of freedom
and vitality
I know the traitor was not me so for ten
years I’ve been searching for the other
two one of them leaves here and your
accomplices stand accused of the crime
of treason have you any evidence to
counter this charge yes the documents
that were delivered to you last night
see that all civilians and passengers
are safely transported to the escape
shuttles I will send a dispatch after
evacuation is complete
number one spec ops the line des Col
malevolence madness and machine guns
that amusing summary but not all there
is to this story a single Delta Force
squad led by captain Martin Walker
enters a storm ravaged to Dubai intent
on gathering information and calling in
the cavalry for help we have our orders
leave the city radio command from
outside the storm walk they send in the
cavalry we go home instead what follows
is a psychological horror story fueled
by violence and packed full with tragedy
this is your fault got stabbed like Dan
Lugo he wouldn’t listen we didn’t have a
choice he turned us into gel ours as the
game charges for it’s devastating finale
its focus shifts back and forth between
Stuart its main characters ceaseless
crusade and confronting the player in
some of gaming’s most piercing moments
that you will not be forgetting for a
very long time a civilian on the right
stole water a capital defense the
soldier on the left was sent to
apprehend him which he did
killing the man’s family in the process
