I don't think we'll ever lose the desire for people to tell stories or to hear stories or to be entrapped in a beautiful story.

Stories are different every time you tell them - they allow so many possible narratives.

I believe that even today we can only tell a simple story without really interfering with gameplay. But in the future, I think it will almost be a requirement of all storytellers when they create games, how they can tell a more complex story without conflicting with the gameplay.

What we want to see is stories that are going to be honest stories about the characters that we're telling them about.

Basically, all novelists should want to tell a story, and if they don't want to, they shouldn't be novelists. I think story-telling is important and underrated.

You have only so many chances to tell stories. I didn't want to be forever wedded to one form of storytelling when there are so many out there.

I'm really into the idea of telling stories. Everyone needs stories. Everyone needs to escape every once in a while.

It's often said that everybody has a story to tell, and I suppose that's true, but the problem is that most of them aren't worth telling.

We don't only tell stories when we set out to tell stories, our memory tells us stories. That is, what we get to keep from our experiences is a story.

And it's a human need to be told stories. The more we're governed by idiots and have no control over our destinies, the more we need to tell stories to each other about who we are, why we are, where we come from, and what might be possible.
