Are video games better without stories? (Gaming)

Actually, you're right. I really never thought of it like that. I still don't like it though.

The game is questioning this rule. Why do you want to play a game about war? Why are you willing to do whatever is necessary to keep the linear story moving? If you saw a large crowd of unarmed people, why did you do it? You should have turned the game off.

That's what bothers me. That's just not a compelling message or story for me. Why didn't I turn the game off? Because I paid sixty dollars for the fucking thing, and everyone else apparently loves it, so I'll slog through it.

I guess I just don't like the real-world side of it. Here, pay us $60 for this so we can tell you bad you are for playing the fucking thing.
