RDR2 is the only character driven AAA game I’ve ever seen. I don’t think another one even exists. It was a masterpiece of a story.

Are you joking and I just don't get it? Lol

“Character driven” is a literary term. I can’t name any other character driven AAA games. I don’t think they exist. Every other game I’ve seen is “plot driven”. RDR2 had very little plot and it was all very much a side show. The main part of the story was the characters and how they changed over time.

Okay, I see what you mean now. I didn't think you meant in a literary sense. I thought you meant like, having a main character that has characterization and isn't soley a player insert. You may be right in that regard then; I'm wracking my memory and can't think of another one.
