I was going to say replaying but I feel like that limits the question to games like Prey or Fallout New Vegas that have endings and games like The Sims 2 or Cities Skylines where you can play indefinitely end up excluded.

I’m not really referring to games like League of Legends where you’re coming back every month. More so games where you stop playing for an extended period of time.

    Most of the story criticism I’ve heard fall into a handful of categories:

    • Overall plot seeming convoluted and hard to follow (which is understandable when you throw both time travel and parallel universes into the same story)

    • Whitewashed portrayal of racism used for story aesthetics

    • Ending feeling confusing and/or unsatisfying

    • Certain story moments feeling out of place and/or undermining things that other story moments set up

    I haven’t seen much in the way of players expecting/predicting plot twists.
