Gaming Games with the most dramatic stories

[The_GaMer_DuDe94]

this is a suggestion thread but whatever, i read the other topic about making these kind of threads and i still couldn't find the games with the most dramatic stories... so, somebody? a game that you played that had a dramatic story, with twists and stuff... no spoilers please... and yeah, i'm new

 

[Demonbart]

welcome

and dramatic stories, hmm....
try Kingdom Hearts or Super Robot Taisen OG Sage Endless Frontier. Or Final Fantasy.

Phoenix Wright series. There is hardly any gameplay, but that game is all about the story. One of my favorite games on the DS

Phoenix Wright series... Man these questions are asked so often.

Justice For All was one of the worst games in the series, but you should play it for the last case... Its last case is just plain dramatica epica.

 

[_Chaz_]

New Super Mario Bros. and Pokemon

Seriously, I'll say that TWEWY had a pretty dramatic story (imo, of course).
Other than that, the Final Fantasy titles are always good for these types of things.

My favorite is Trial and Tribulations and Apollo Justice. Also TWEWY is also a good game to play to with story and gameplay

This is gonna seem like an odd suggestion but...
Drawn to Life and Drawn to Life 2.
ESPECIALLY Drawn to Life 2...

 

[kamins]

Shin Megami Tensei Devil Survivor has a very dramatic story, it's like living manga.

Drawn to Life and Drawn to Life 2.

Maybe give Lux-Paina try? The games all about story~! But a warning: the grammar isn't that good, but if you can read over that then the story is really good~! Maybe give Tales of Innocence a try now it's completely translated? Then there is Sands of Destruction, the story is quite good, not as good as it could have been, but good.

Here a list (it includes those mentioned above):
- Lux-Pain
- Sands of Destruction
- Tales of Innocence
- Phoenix Wright series
- Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story
- Final Fantasy IV
- The World Ends With You
- Black Sigil: Blade of the Exiled
- Bleach the 3rd Phantom
- Luminous Arc series
- Hotel Dusk
- Another Code: Two Memories -> Take the EU one, it's closer to the JP one than the US was (yes there are differences between the EU and USA one)
- Kingdom Hearts 358-2 Days
- Megaman Star Force 3
- Megaman Zero Collection
- Nostalgia
- Suikoden Tierkreis
- Valkyrie Profile Covenant of the Plume
- Time Hollow
- Dragon Quest V

Why do people keep saying Final Fantasy? All I ever see from Final Fantasy games is the same, old, generic story archetype, with the same, old generic character archetypes...

 

[dysan]

lux pain
the world ends with you
shin megami tensei:devil survivor


TIME HOLLOW


and that's all I'm gonna say

 

[Uchiha Obito]

Twewy... Nothing more, nothing less

 

[Phoenix Goddess]

Twewy... Nothing more, nothing less

Always more and always less.

Shin Megami depending on your choices.

Harvest Moon DS Cute. None of the men were attractive or they were old perverted men that wanted young little girls.
The character always had to watch her back from geriatrics sneaking in her house, drugging her into marriage and knocking her up. Such riveting drama.

 

[personager]

The Metal Gear series

 

[suruz]

This is gonna seem like an odd suggestion but...
Drawn to Life and Drawn to Life 2.
ESPECIALLY Drawn to Life 2...

I kinda agree about the 2nd one.. Those games don't get mentioned much, but the second one had a surprisingly good story.. (if somewhat trippy towards the end @_@)

Whereas the slew of identical macho grizzled space marine Marcus Fenix wannabes dragging the 360 to hell are brimming with originality and emotional depth....

 

[killeryunran]

Time Hollow...I cried at a point...so...sad..

 

[SanktyRG]

Dragon Quest V, it's really dramatic, it almost made me cry in some parts.

 

[tijntje_7]

^agree Dragon quest actually DID make me cry

It was one of the best stories a game had imo.
But anyway... zelda Majora's mask's story is the end o.o
The story is creepy, the moon is extremely creepy.
The side quests stories are extremely good for a side quest. (anju and kafei par example

)
Is not ds anyway, but who cares

And The world ends with you... Great story, yeah... (square enix?

)
