I have a low enough opinion of the stories in games that I've stayed away from adventure games like these, as they pretty much entirely depedent on their story. Story is more of an added extra, while I expect a bare minimum in RPGs and certain other kinds of games, I'm mostly hoping the story doesn't detract from the experience, rather than be the experience.
