Steel your nerves and play Pathologic. It's what Dostoevsky and Kafka running a small indie game outfit in the early 2000s would have made.

Choose the Bachelor's story if you're a transhumanist faget and the Haruspicus's if you're a transcendentalist pleb.

Pathologic is the pinnacle of serious storytelling in games if you can look past it's shitty Runglish translation. Dostoevsky + Kafka split into three narratives.

Also, there's plenty of great "interactive fiction" out there. I did a presentation on Photopia in my creative writing class.

Is this one of those "Games - art?" threads?

Anyway, you should check out Pathologic, OP.

This thread again guys? Seriously?

Most games are shit art, but that doesn't mean they can't be better.

Was waiting for someone to mention Pathologic. It'd probably be easier to get a thread going here about it than on /v/, ironically.

Also, I'm pretty sure it has more text than PS:T. Don't forget that it has three narratives.
