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.

I second Yakuza: Like a Dragon!

I still think Yakuza 0 is the best starting point, but wouldn't discourage anyone from starting with Like a Dragon, either.

I wanted to try it, but I think I saw that it's turn based. Haven't been much of a fan of turn based games in the past. Unless maybe I'm mistaken?
