I've read plenty of dull books, and played many engagingly plotted games. But then those games are often criticized as having too much text.
- TeMPOraL 6y agoCase in point: Mass Effect, criticized elsewhere in the thread for having too much/bad text, where for me all that text (including the encyclopedic content in-game) was what built one of the most immersive and engaging virtual world I've ever experienced.
