story lines are lame. Graal's not a story-line kind of game. A theme is enough

A theme which holds up works.

A theme that's just put together with sand paper... Na.

Yea, like classic has a theme, and when they make quests, they base it off their theme, but there's no real intense story line. Zone does need to stay consistent.

I mean classic kind of does have a story line...

Pig you've actually played classic more than I have since I stopped but like do you even read the npcs?

But yea.

Like dear tash, how does a giant ape come to live on a lava planet... In a cave... I dunz get.

There's not a real story line. NPCs stick with a theme and talk about 'stories,' most of which are just clues to a quest, or a reference from Graal the Adventure. There's no intense story line though

I would disagree with that.
If 7 of your friends all said similar things, you would be suspicious, no?
I strongly believe that classic does have a main plot. Now does it chronologically work? Well no since its a static time game(for the most part...), but like even the quests tie back to some of the plot.

As for references to a game, I would still consider that as a plot point since you know... Kinda the same game... Like did you know Zelda Wind Waker only hints at Ganondorf... But like I wonder who the first like seven minutes of the game is taking about... Oooh.

Hence why I said intense plot. Which is exactly why it has a theme, but there's hardly a solid plot.

Oh no I never disagreed that the plot is lacking.

But it is well built.

And that's what zone needs.

Story in a game is like a story in a porn movie. It's expected to be there, but it's not that important.

I mean it kind of is... I understand its all personal preference but I believe I speak for most when I say that in a game with a lot of possible motions, there should be a story behind it.

Now for a simple game like snake... Well technically there is a story... At least in the fancy one where you gotta eat apples and not just dots... Lelz.  

Zone shouldn't have a story unless it has story quests. What, are we supposed to read a 300 word plot before starting the tutorial?

Zone has a plot. Giant Bigfoot came down upon Lava Planet and unleashed a swarm of lava slugs, while he remains in hiding beneath the surface of Lava Planet. And that is how Zone came to be!

depends on the game gendre
If its a fighting game then your right but if its an rpg then the story is important.

I mean let's be real... we all pick scorpion because of his amazing back story over sub zero...

Technically graal is an rpg... sooo... doesn't it even say that in the app description? I'm pretty sure that the words "Story line" even make it in there lmao.

Why own up to a false image, when we can create a novel and truthful vision?
