Red Dead Redemption II
I’m playing it now for the second time. This game deserves to be HBO series. It’s amazing. The characters and story get you right in the feels

undertakerprime:
Some of my favorite game stories:

- The Last of Us (haven’t played part 2, but the story in part 1 is SO well done)
- Bioshock, especially the first one and Infinite (I ADORE Infinite)
- Metal Gear Solid 3 (the series story can be extremely convoluted, but I think MGS3’s works very well)
- Mass Effect (not necessarily very deep, but it’s a very detailed universe)
- Final Fantasy X IMO has the best story of any FF

emporerdragon:
For a shorter game: Dordogne. It's a pretty straightforward narrative point and click, but it does an excellent job at capturing that feeling of bittersweet nostalgia from when going through the things of a relative who has passed.

Probably the best in writing were the old Infocom Text adventures, since they were just text, they had to be at least on the level of novels and thus much betterr than most video games even to this day: Trinity,  Planetfall, A Mind Forever Voyaging and Lurking Horror are great.
Planescape Torment is still one of the best, most mature stories around
L.A. Noire with it's mixture of based on real events crimes, real events turned fictional solution (Black Dahlia) and the whole tragic but very noire story of Cole himself
Gothic Trilogy, yeah the third game was a letdown and the ending wasn't all that it could be, but the ride from "Prisoner to Hero" and the friends we made (Diego!) was great.
Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis. That's the fourth and last Indiana Jones movie made in my world.

With the announcement of the sequel, also Kingdom Come: Deliverance. I can't wait to see how the story further unfolds.
