how the adventure was great but who on a
crappy story welcome to watchmojo.com
and steal the counting down our picks
for the top 10 good game with bad
stories I could tell you it’s a great
battle
centuries ago for this list we’re
ranking you games based on how
incredible they are from a gameplay
perspective ya struggle to tell an
interesting story to qualify for those
lists the game actually has to be making
an attempt to tell a story so you won’t
find any throwaway save the princess
story here number 10 resident evil
tyrant virus is a super virus which
creates a monster which is much stronger
than human seed let’s be honest as
memorable as this game is when has
Resident Evil ever been known for having
a good story remember the best game in
the series has a story dedicated to
rescuing the president’s daughter as for
the first one we can all recount the
number of good times we had shooting
zombies in the face and running from
demonic hounds that jump through the
windows but come on the story wasn’t any
real surprise that your commanding
officer who keeps telling disappearing
and has a bad habit of wearing
sunglasses indoors at night turned out
to be the bad guy I think you should
stay away from Barry Jill I hear that
his wife and two daughters will be in
danger if he doesn’t do everything I
tell him to although thinking back the
countless number of memes that spawn
from the poor dialogue and voice acting
were probably really worth it in the
long run speaking of which anyone up for
Jill sandwiches after this you were
almost a Jill sandwich you’re right
Barry thanks for saving my life number 9
Diablo 3 new Tristram started when some
traveling merchants decided to set down
here to sell to the adventurer it grew
quickly for just wow has there ever been
a game like this to have such weird
dialogue well you know aside from
resident evil of course so you’re going
to steal all the research
despite the complaints about Kelantan
online connectivity this game still
received high amounts of praise for its
oh so addictive gameplay
Diablo 3 may have been another success
in Blizzard legacy but some of these
bits of dialogue or just yeah how dare
you speak to me like that I am the mayor
of this town look we appreciate the
silliness and all but let’s not get too
crazy okay the other adventurers who
came through here didn’t look so
number eight halo 5 guardians you’ve
changed it was time looking back on the
past games in the series including halo
4 halo 5 could have had a way better
story the AI may have made the game more
challenging and the environments were as
lush and beautiful as ever
but and this is a big one the story just
suck it’s not too late to stop this stop
John the main lead commander Locke is
such a dull character liking any sort of
standout personality and the much-hyped
battle between him and the chief ended
up being nothing more than a
non-interactive fistfight but that’s
okay they ended up being bloody buds at
the end and sharing about ten minutes of
time together so was Master Chief mom
names Martha by any chance number seven
destiny ghost actually now I’m your
ghost and you well you’ve been dead a
long time launching to a slightly rocky
start we have to admit that this game
has gotten better in some areas more
missions more combat no sign of bad
Peter Dinklage acting such bliss until
you try to find the story in which case
good luck
told throughout the city to fight each
other we’re not saying there isn’t a
story but it’s a bit of a pain in the
ass when you have to go onto your
computer away from your game just to
figure out what exactly is going on in
the universe take that away and it’s
just a game where you shoot a lien
holding back information can be good to
add a sense of intrigue to the lore but
definitely goes way too far to the point
where it’s holding back any motive or
something to even care about some piece
the game is so fun to play but if you’re
interested in a story you better start
sifting through those destiny explained
videos number six you know blade
Chronicles X for such an incredible open
world to explore hundreds of hours worth
of questions to take on the spiritual
successor to the well blood Cena Blade
chronicles and all the makings of a
surefire hit yet it’s hard to look past
how incredibly generic the story is and
biggest misstep is its villain the
ganglion are we supposed to buy that
these guys are powerful enough to
destroy the earth but struggled to take
down a single human city or that their
big reason for wiping out mankind is
that humanity isn’t like a great cancer
festering on the continent
hey writers there’s a billion stars in
our galaxy alone it’s kind of hard to
buy that we’re the biggest threat to all
of them from our insignificance
back on the map Plus that whole humanity
is a disease thing is really overdone
[Music]
number five Mortal Kombat X Raiden
what’d you find
cannot amulet has been stolen replaced
by an exquisite duplicate blue
fatalities galore let’s break some bones
and snap some sign
indeed Mortal Kombat has made an
impressive comeback after the hiccups
that were Armageddon and deception while
Mortal Kombat X proves the hype once
again the story campaign was less than
stellar – the voice acting was great and
all but we come to Mortal Kombat just
wanting to hear about some intestine
what we got where a series of side
stories that just can collide well with
the tone of the franchise would you
rather be decapitating your opponent or
listening to the story about how Johnny
Cage and Sonya Blade got married had a
kid and then got divorced come on this
is Mortal Kombat not a Lifetime movie oh
yeah honey number 4 Pokemon X&Y
[Music]
if eyes were daggers they would be aimed
towards this game and specifically
towards its villain team Flair what
separates this team from all the others
Team Rocket was abusive towards Pokemon
and committed crimes Team Aqua and magma
wants to expand the water and land okay
that last plot was damn stupid but team
player wants to get rich and annihilate
mankind in order to make the earth
beautiful again as they put it so you’re
kind of like eco-terrorists under the
rule of a hippie scrooge mcduck and how
can you eliminate humanity if you want
to make money you know what just you do
you team player so it’s still the
addictive and engaging catch and battle
Pokemon formula it always worked so well
but come on what is with that giant hobo
did he actually do anything number three
Bayonetta out to find some answers about
your past are we rarely does a videogame
manage to pull off Campina so damn well
to the ever attractive spam meta series
between the gracefully over-the-top
combat and provocative style it’s hard
to forget this game and thankfully we
were treated to a sequel a few years
later even took the ears of the potheads
down oh we wish we could give such
praise to its scatterbrained plot though
the game has so much of an information
overload that it’s very hard to keep
track of what’s going on and it’s even
more hard to figure out what exactly
Bayonetta or for that matter anyone is
actually trying to achieve the game is
weird but the game is also great so go
play it okay next on boy
number two the Elder Scrolls fine Skyrim
sure mom Gizella tenerife akatosh
declines please help me but that’s a as
much as we love you and Skyrim this hole
you are the chosen one stick is getting
kind of old we saw it in fallout we
thought in Doom we saw it in pretty much
every other game the idea is wearing
kind of thin don’t get us wrong yelling
at our enemies into a ragdoll state is
as entertaining as hell don’t change
that what we’re asking for is just a
better story
we totally understand that’s a nonlinear
nature of these games require a story
that can be picked up and left off at
any time and that the best parts of the
Professor RPG are the stories that you
make up for yourself while you’re
playing but come on we could use the
Morty’s characters some riveting plot
twists and a few unconventional
narrative paths in the end we know we’re
going to defeat that all-powerful beauty
because we did it in the last four Elder
Scrolls game
before we unveil our number one pick
here a few honorable in this case
dishonorable mention overruled a judge
the defendant guilty as charged
hereby order the defendant to clean this
entire island he plans the fight against
places so he doesn’t want them to get
into centimeters unbearable thoughts
welled up in me making me want to get as
far away as I could
number one Metal Gear Solid 5 the
phantom pain
it pains us to put the phantom pain at
the top spot because while the games and
a new gold standard for the stealth
action genre the story suffered most
likely due to the internal conflicts
between Konami and Hideo Kojima there is
just so much to this game story that’s
confusing as hell and what’s worse is
that it’s supposed to be the final
chapter in big boxes story but instead
of answering questions it created a lot
more this one he’ll take your place from
here on
he’s snake what’s up with that volume to
tape from Ground Zero what did Eli do
with the whole anthropos where’s our
closure for the rest of the Diamond Dogs
why did snake rub the ashes of those
soldiers all over his face like it was
acne cream and one here’s a really big
one why in the world did big boss turn
into the original Metal Gear villain
I wasn’t explaining that the whole part
of doing a prequel so if you agree with
our list which games had you rolling
your eyes at the god-awful story for
more top ten published every day be sure
to subscribe to watchmojo.com it took
you long enough
