Whatever happened to videogames with a PLOT?

[Infernova]

To be perfectly honest there really wasn't all that much needed to be said to begin with. Even if we sat for hours questioning the reasons why developers these days aren't going to great lengths to make a decent plot for their FPS, it won't affect the fact that that sort of thing will still be churned out on a regular basis anyway. Unless any of us are directly involved with the industry, or wish to contact dev teams directly to tell them how shoddy their latest game was due to lack of a fresh story. Even then I doubt anything good will come from it. xD

A lot of it is down to opinion though, I guess, about what's good and what isn't. If you liked Marathon, play System Shock, since you're okay with dated graphics. Or you could try Call of Cthulhu, although it's not an FPS, but an interesting first person horror styled role playing game. Maybe Condemned if you like horror FPS. ;O;'
