Best narrative driven games on Gamepass, with equally solid gameplay? (self.gaming)

Hey all, I'm just looking for some solid story driven games on Xbox gamepass, that are equally fun to play. I had been recommended the Mass Effect series, and while I believe the story will be great, the first game is an absolute slog to get through right now.

What are some good story games that are equally entertaining in the actual gameplay that are currently on gamepass?

Heck, even just games with solid gameplay will do, if the story is serviceable.

Hey thanks! How do you format like that? I'm on mobile.

@panchzila

I was using tut, it's an option to reply .... I'm looking in the mobile app now and I'm not seeing the functionality

There should be a way to format in the app. I'll look into it. Thanks!

Are you on the website, or using something like Jerboa?

[–] panchzila 1 points 2 years ago

I'm using mostly Jerboa. Sometimes (like now) I use the website.

I've played each of these except Pillars. I suppose it's time to give it a shot. Thank you!
