There is nothing more pretentious and deluded than a gamer who goes around saying this. They are called GAMES not BOOKS. This goes for any game not just the pieces of shit pictured here.

      Nah, if you want good writing, read a book or watch a great movie. Getting your stories from vidya is cringe and bottom tier behavior.

    When gameplay fails, and it will fail, all you have left is the reason you're engaging in the gameplay loop

      And what might you consider good writing?

        You’re never going to get a good faith argument with this. Someone would consider anything “cringe” or “reddit” around here because they base their personality around contrarianism and irony.

        Books (not even close to fair): Hyperion, Foundation, Dune, Remembrance of Earth's Past
        Visual Novels (unfair tier): Ever 17, Ace Attorney 3, Umineko, Clannad, Tsukihime, Fate/Stay Night
        RPGs (even competition): Chrono Cross, Shin Megami Tensei 3: Nocturne, Final Fantasy IX, Planescape

        The "writing" in Mass Effect 1 is the most cliched average sci-fi plot

    It's fine to want good writing in a videogame, but if you value anything higher than the gameplay you're a moron who has helped cause the state of dogshit.

    like 0.2% of all the games ever made are enjoyed because of their writing, just play the other 99.8% if you don't like them

    It's not pretentious it is just what I like. I enjoy the story telling and world building in ME1, which enhances the game design, a lot. It is very immersive for me. ME2 arguably has much better gameplay, in terms of combat, and it even has more dialog, but the writing is hit or miss which sometimes takes me out of the experience.
