Then there are all those non-linear RPG's out there with great stories. Planescape Torment comes to mind.

Deus Ex was such an amazing experience. Great gameplay, huge choice in how you develop your character, a complex and engaging story, great characters, fantastic dialogue and setpieces and so much freedom. Why can't they make games like that today!? Sad

Its more like a rare exception. Deus Ex is a 7 years old game, how many non-linear games with a great story did you play since Deus Ex? Smile

@ KrutojPoc

Let's see....non-linear games since deus ex?

Kotor
Kotor 2
NWN (plus all the mods)
NWN 2 (plus all the future mods)
Gothic series
Arcanum
Baldur's gate 2(yes it came AFTER deus ex or pretty much the same time)
Gene troopers

The list does go on,but I can't be bothered to list all games that are non-linear(that is debatable) and has a good/decent story.
Not all linear games have good story...not by a long shot.


AMD Ryzen 9 7900X 4,7 GHz
Asrock X670E Steel Legend
G.Skill Trident Z5 32 GB DDR5 6400Mhz
Asus TUF RTX 4090 24 GB GDDR6X
NZXT Kraken Z73 RGB
Corsair HX1500i Platinum
NZXT H7 Flow

Well, those games are completely different than FPS'.


Upcoming PC games 2009 and onwards

and how many linear games, apart from halflife, actually even try to tell a story?
really not that many


there is a mod for flashpoint that places you basically in a '28 days later' kind of universe, with no real instruction other than survive and escape the zombie infested island
you scour around the island for vehicles and fuel, guns and ammo, survivors and information
it's immersive and YOU write the story, far more gripping than, say, halflife
it's not that hard
it's just not marketable to say "well, you can do whatever you like"

Thief 3 : DS is non-linear (well, not as linear as most games), can be played in first person and did have quite a good story, but maybe that's just my opinion.
