These video games have the most complicated storylines that raised many controversies in the gaming industry. Let’s check them out here with Gurugamer.com.
Bioshock Infinite
This video game is about the multi-universe theory which claims that different results of an event come to a different space and time. The gap between these universes can be great, leading to lots of unintelligible events. For example, the protagonist can foresee his death.
Moreover, the weird ending of Bioshock makes many players curious about their existence. There is lots of hidden information that players have to explore in audio logs scattered in the game world.
Assassin’s Creed Series
This franchise is leaving many players confused about its plot. While the first part is easy to understand despite the mysterious background of Desmond Miles, the storyline of the sequels is really chaotic.
During Assassin’s Creed 2, players control the assassin Ezio. However, instead of killing the target, he explored the mystery of Minerva and Precursors at the end of the game. It makes the game’s plot complicated. After talking to the ancients through Ezio, Desmond knows that the Earth will be destroyed in a solar storm. The only way to prevent this disaster is by releasing Juno (a Precursors) and killing Desmond. In the end, gamers will play as an anonymous Abstergo staff.
Souls and Bloodborne Series
Both Souls and Bloodborne series have very little storytelling. Players have to explore the storyline themselves through conversations, cut screens, and even in item descriptions. It, of course, requires the patience and imagination of players to unveil such a long plot by collecting pieces of the story.
Chrono Cross
It’s the sequel of Chrono Trigger, one of the best role-playing games of Square Enix. But Chrono Cross is not highly-estimated as its prequel, partially because of the chaotic plot. Its story contains too many events, universes, periods, and characters. Side characters like dragons, aliens, cursed dolls, wrestlers, and even beets have no connection to the plot. However, each of them has huge backstories, contributing to a super complicated storyline.
Metal Gear Franchise
The beginning is pretty easy to understand. But after a series of prequels, sequels, and spin-offs, Metal Gear became chaos. The publisher left fans of this franchise shocked after giving the role of the main character to Raiden instead of Snake. Many plots of the organization Patriots also make the game more complex.
