Can I get some +rep for bringing your style and taste in styles together?

For me its not just one overall factor.

Its 3 of those: Gameplay, Graphics, and Storyline.


I dont want to play a game with a good storyling, but ****ty graphics and gameplay. Or a good looking game with ****ty gameplay and storyline, and so on.

I dont think you can measure it up to one thing for anyone. Nobody says "Well, this game is ****, but it looks good, so I'll buy it." or "I cant make out the faces on these people, but I heard the storyline is good, so I'll bear through the mongloid-esque characters."

To me, it's all about style and fun/cool factor.

I guess that falls into gameplay, but certain graphical elements contribute, and if the story is really really original it also contributes.
