Whatever happened to videogames with a PLOT?

I just don't see the point in turning something someone said into an argument against them, that's all. It's the sort of thing that I'd imagine could turn people away from posting in forums at all. ;O;'

I'm not usually fussed for incredibly complex stories in most games, to be honest. But it's pretty much essential, as Squeek says, for genres like RPGs to have at least a half-decent plot. Unless it's an MMORPG, like PSO, in which case I just want to grind until I get better equips and farm bosses all day. xD

Oh, and by the way. I played the Marathon Trilogy when I was little. Too young to understand it much, but it was good fun. =P
