No answers yesterday. Oh well.
I've seen people get bullied off the site for less than the answer to the question to be honest.
Do you get the feeling some games have forced plot elements?
Yeah absolutely. Games have it really tough cause they have to juggle being a good game, and thus giving players agency and gameplay time, with the story. This can, for instance, cause a lot of "pause" or "battle" moments in the story, depending on the motiff of the game.
