Why should every CS require you to read a block of backstory before throwing you into the game or have you skim through tons of notes that tell you of all the stuff that has happened before you arrived?

I think a good story can just as well unfold only through your actions inside the game alone, allowing you to form your own version of what's going on as you play... even if the game only provides you with an interesting setting and a few clues, with no "right interpretation" of what's happening.
Soo... I am quite interested to see where this is going.
The good stories are the ones that don't do this. I made the mistake of "telling, not showing" with my first story (Snowed In), and as a result, Let's Plays were boring to watch. Environmental clues that hint of a story is far superior. I will be keeping my eyes on this. Smile
