: Speak for yourself. I've read books like that which chronicled the day to day : life of a what its like being a fast-jet pilot in peace time. : There is no story, but does not mean the book wasn't any of those things. : Heck, by your statement, you'd think no one at all is interested in : documentaries. These are interesting because they're informative : Perhaps we can drop the notion that all video games are trying to tell a : story. : But Reach does tell a story. Just might not be the kind you wanted. : One of the things Bungie were going for with Reach, as mentioned in the : commentary, was to actually give it a documentary type of feel. Fair enough. I wanna say that this aim, to present a documentary of Reach's fall, was not at all clear. Nor does it seem intuitive when dealing with a fictional locale so ripe for narrative. But if this was Bungie's aim... then it's just a hugely missed opportunity.
