/lit/ - Literature

I asked one of my friends that plays and collects video games to recommend some with good narrative and interesting ideas. God was it depressing. Video games may have the potential to be art eventually but these are shit. I wish there was even one that could get a decent writer.

I played:
>Final Fantasy VI
>Final Fantasy VII
>Chronotrigger
>Xenoblade Chronicles

Every one of them was 40+ hours of an overly sentimental hero's journey, blatant power fantasy self insertion characters, and mustache twirling cartoon villains. The humor is awful, everyone speaks in identical voice.

The only thing appealing about the majority were some of the world building aspects.
