Garriot's story is interesting.
You want to make a game that was 'about something' to prove that PTA moms were wrong about video games, and then you realize that you were basically illiterate and completely uncultured and couldn't write a story about anything. So then you go and teach yourself as much about world religion and philosophy as you can as fast as you can so that you can actually make a game that has a thesis and point while not bankrupting your company by missing your release date.
That got you Ultima 4.

Also the answer to "did you say [unflattering thing] 30 years ago that no one has any hard recordings of" is always going to be no.

>>717065873
Wrong. The story is the most important aspect in most media formats except gaming. Books. TV Shows. Movies. Anime. The story is easily the most important aspect no debate. With videogames the story is important but the gameplay is even more important...but to say story can be absent from a movie is retarded. The very point of a movie is to tell you a story.

He's right about that. Hollywood soundtracks are nothing if not generic and do nothing to compliment gameplay.

>>717065873
>>717067549
You're both wrong. The presence of a story in a video game is entirely optional. But if it's there, it automatically rises to importance because it's now framing everything you do. It creates context for your gameplay. And context drives engagement, but it can also take it away if the context is fucking stupid.

A good story with good writing can get your adrenaline pumping and make your feel like a badass for beating a boss. A shit story can deflate the entire experience and make it feel banal and frustrating.

>>717068885
I think it's impressive you could make a game as self-fellating as YIIK and get upset it's not well liked and double down instead of gaining some self-awareness. The main character's flaws are romanticized.

"If Mel were lactating I'd have another cookie" ~Dicko
"This would have worked I had just done it right" ~John

>>717071484
I think that's not quite right, Alex isn't merely an asshole. Brad Armstrong is an asshole, Travis Touchdown is an asshole and Neku is an asshole, but they're likable assholes. Characters you want to see grow and change, and sometimes they do and sometimes they don't. Alex' sin isn't that he's an asshole, but that he's a fucking dullard. He's the kind of guy who will talk your ears off about Kafka on the Shore at a party while sipping from a mimosa, but the moment you say "I like how the second person narration in the scenes with Miss Saeki symbolizes Kafka's disassociation of his darker feelings and his struggles with the prophecy" he shirks back and admits he isn't that far into it yet.

Because I'm not retard. You really are incapable of reading comprehension. In my post I said that story is important but the MOST IMPORTANT thing in videogame is gameplay. Period. Full stop.

I then said....story is the most important thing in a fucking movie because the entire point of a movie is to tell you a fucking story.
