Looking for a game with a great story... Could it be Watch Dogs: Legion? (lemm.ee)

So two-part question here:

If you've played Watch Dogs: Legion, did you like it?

And especially, did you like it for the story?

This makes me think the game is not primarily about the story: https://opencritic.com/game/7405/watch-dogs-legion

I played WD2 and enjoyed that quite a bit though never finished it.

I want the next game I play on my PC (via Steam, etc...) to have a great story. Recommendations greatly appreciated.

Other games I've played with what I thought were great stories: Psychnoauts 2, Portal 2, Soma (though I'm not really into scary games), Firewatch, Metro all, The Talos Principle

Cheers,

I played it but it was just ok. It was mostly fun to mess around in for short periods, but most of the story missions were meh. The one about the AI designer's house (Coming Home) was interesting though.

I really don't know what kind of games you like, I love loooooooong RPG's myself and can recommend Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous if you're happy to invest a big chunk of your time. Just turn down the difficulty and enjoy the story if the stats are mind boggling (I know I did). Creating the character you want to be is so much more fun than worrying if you're powerful enough to defeat the final boss.
The Pillars of Eternity games are also RPG's who's story I really enjoyed.

Oh, one more. I really enjoyed Roadwarden as well. But that's more of a visual novel kind of game.
