The best storyline in game history?

The story was trite, the characters were bland and uninteresting, I had zero emotional attachment to anyone; the only reason I gave a shit when Aeris died was because she's the healer and it was annoying, certainly not emotional; and the controls and gameplay sucked, like, hard.
Forgot to mention my biggest gripe: the world setting was fucking lame and poorly realized, full of inconsistencies and stupidity.

As for "The best storyline in game history?" no idea, there's no way any of the games I've played merit that title...still haven't played a game that I HAD to finish because of the storyline...
Ofc so far in this thread I haven't played Septerra Core or Planescape, so maybe I'll give those a shot and I'll change my mind xD
also, lol at assassin's creed having a good story
EvoluderGuy:
Killer7 (Bizarre but it makes you think)
Heavy rain (The gameplay is shit but the story is undeniably good)
Persona 3 (I just like it i don't really know why)
Bioshock (Best twist ever)
Metal gear solid 1-4 (Really complex story and great characters)

It isn't even one of the best final fantasy games.

Assassin's Creed DOES have a good story. I didn't put it in my own list, but it is definitely good.

Nah, it's third-best imo, preceded by FF6 and 4.

Funny, I feel the same about characters in FFVI. Japanese stories ride heavily on characters so when you don't like them the whole storyline is ruined. The only characters I liked in FFVI were Celes, Mash and maybe Edgar. I was greatly disappointed with the rest, especially with Cefca.
Actually, FFVII became a lot more enjoyable for me after Aeris died. That's because she was the only character that I not only disliked but also HATED in FFVII. So I was really happy when Seph killed her for good.

That's 4 years since then and the only things that have been released are Portal 2 and DOTA 2 this fall (supposedly).

Dota 2 is next year, don't know when yet. More slots in the beta is this fall.
