Is A Machine For Pigs best suited to a 'mature' audience?

[NicoNico]

Having a great story but bad gameplay is just as lame as having good graphics and lame gameplay.

I have to say i disagree on this one. Having good graphics doesn't make a game interesting.

Why not?



I feel the general concession would be similar to yours (Good graphics bad gameplay=bad, Good story bad game play=ok, maybe even good)



I personally don't think a game is a good platform for storytelling only/mostly, games are meant to be played not read. I feel one does that they did not make it as a book writer so they go into gaming and have your writing do well there. Like a next best thing Kind of deal.



But hey, I just want to be more involved in a story let just walk around reading about it. I have a hard time even saying this game had gameplay, because there wasn't really much to play.





Not trying to be combative, it's just this game is so not what I wanted it to be.

What I meant is that I don't think good graphics is something that keeps you playing for several hours through a game whereas a good story can.

Personnaly I think video games are a great media for storytelling, maybe even better than cinema, because you have an interaction with the player. But this is how I feel and it's different for everyone, so I understand your point^^
