What game lore do you find most interesting? : Othor Games

» Sun May 13, 2012 10:53 am

Basically, what I am asking is what other lore from other games do you find compelling or interesting?

I like TES lore the most but I would rather not have this OP a tl;dr gush thread so disucuss!

I really liked Resistance's lore. The intel was really interesting, and it made you feel like a hero trying to save a dying world.

Wait, lore... From games that aren't TES? Madness and Heresy.

Fallout and Starcraft.

Fallout and Starcraft.

Heh, I forgot about Starcraft. Good times

Pre-WoW Warcraft and Halo.

Never the biggest fan of TES lore.

Fallout's lore.

World of Warcraft

Starcraft

Bioshock

TES's lore is a bit convoluted for me.

Warhammer 40K. 10,000 years of history, and then some.

Pre-WoW Warcraft

Warcraft III?

Probably AC and TES, but its leaning for to AC.

I love the whole idea of Pieces of Eden and the Templars etc...
I love how Templar and Assassins have been linked with all of the major events in history and how the pieces of eden tie into it all.

Fallout. Oddly enough Mass Effect, I was and still am a gigantic nerd on it. Hence why every little change can sadden me. Minor Star Wars and 40k lore nerd.

Warcraft III?

Oddly enough pre-WoW also includes WC 2 and 1. Weird right? And yes to all 3 games.

I didn't know what you meant by Pre-Wow, I am not a Warcraft guy.

My apologies.

Fallout and BioShock. TES's law is an impenetrable wall of [censored].

Fair enough. I dunno if I hate WoW lore, but I defintely am not a fan.

Pre-WoW Warcraft and Halo.

Never the biggest fan of TES lore.

I would dare say that Halo lore was more fun then Halo.

Deus Ex's is pretty interesting, and Human Revolution expands on it nicely. It's cool that it's all based on real world conspiracies, too.

» Sun May 13, 2012 10:41 am

Fallout's lore is interesting, but the Pre-War lore fascinates me. The robots, the machines, the culture, etc.
Bioshock is a very lore rich game as well. I love so much about it, Rapture, the history behind it's conception, and the civil war.
I also liked Oblivions lore, I cant say I enjoy TES lore since I've only played Oblivion.

Starwars (not nerd like and only the offical canon of the movies)

I was always amazed how mutch lore Starwars seemed to have. I only know of the movies :laugh:

That, I didn't know :blink:

I like Assassins Creed, but I'm not to up-to-date on it. I know a lot of TES. I amaze some of my friends with the stuff I know in the games.

Me too.

TES Lore is good. I actually really enjoy the "lore" of WoW, despite its lack of cohesion. The way they handled LK and the continent of Northrend and all the intertwining stories was pretty awesome....

One game that I tried to get as much info as I could has been the Batman games. Obviously it has more material to reference than just the games but I find it interesting how Rocksteady basically mashed all of the different eras and styles of Batman together to create a universe that includes a little bit of it all. You get the darker more serious version of the Riddler, next to the more animated and I guess more comic Joker( at least compared to Heath Ledgers take on the madman)

TES Lore is always interesting. There's lots to read up on.

» Sun May 13, 2012 12:34 am

Thief and Star-Wars. Yes, Star-Wars games lore. I love the Kyle Katarn thread, and I enjoyed KotOR.
