Rachet & Clank

When it comes to video games, I'm a failure.

It's not that I don't like them, I'm just never compelled to finish them, so I just end up with a stack of unfinished games haunting me (and I'm not even gonna get into the FPS induced motion sickness).

So, for this task I had to pick (out of very few options) the last game I finished, Rachet & Clank, the 2016 version, developed by Insomniac Games.

The story is narrated by Captain Qwark, a Galactic Ranger, that wants to tell his fellow inmates his own version of the events of the first Rachet & Clank (released in 2002).

This game is about Rachet, a mechanic Lombax who dreams of being a Galactic Ranger (but was rejected for his criminal past); and Clank, a warbot built for a droid army, that goes rogue due to a defect. Clank escapes his factory, and ends up in Rachet's planet, Veldin.
Together they go around the Galaxy trying to warn the Rangers and save everyone from the threat that Dr. Nefarious (ex-Galactic Ranger) and his droid army pose to the universe, while trying to get Rachet into the crew.

Spoiler: they save everyone, except for the bad guy. 

this is what the screen looks like 80% of the time

                           
The visuals of the game are beautiful, and the camera work is amazing (take into account this is coming from someone that gets motion sickness from Uncharted).

you gotta admit, the game looks cool 

                                                         
This game is somewhat a remake of the PS2 original, so the plot is essentially the same.
As someone who played both (and as a kid was addicted to all Rachet & Clank games available for PS2), I can say for sure that even though narrative is what drives the game, it's not necessarily its main focus.  The 2016 version does deepen the character development, using movie scenes (yes, they made a movie out of this game), but at least to me, the gameplay always felt much more important than the narrative I was following.

Nevertheless, the narrative got me hooked just enough so that I actually finished the game, and that's what matters, isn't it?
