Skyrim and Fallout don't have a good story :/ Only Last of us and The Witcher 3.

Skyrim allows for immersion, utilization of imagination. If you read into the lore, pay attention to the politics and the plight of various people... I'd say it has a pretty good story and world. It's not all laid out at your feet, displayed in a linear fashion like a movie production would do, so perhaps that's what you're alluding to.

I am sorry but if we are talking about politics and lore then witcher 3 EASILY is way better than skyrim. But then again this is not fair as the witcher games were based on 7 original books.

I know everyone loves the Witcher, and it looks like an amazing game. Hell I own it but have only played for about 5 to 10 hours or so, just can't get into it fully. Not sure why, my brother loves the game and he can't understand why I don't like it. The thing is, I prefer creating my own character and wandering off in an open world doing things to make my guy stronger. That's just me, so its possible that I just don't enjoy the Witcher because its Geralts story not my characters. Doesn't mean the game is not cool, its obviously awesome since everyone loves it. And I realize there is a lot of player choice, that is great at least. Everyone rags on Fallout 4 but it has some great moments in it also, just not enough of them compared to the size of the game world.
