tl;dr - What games/movies have plots you can't follow/no plot at all?
So me and my friend decided to rent army of two: the 40th day because we were bored and needed a decent multiplayer. We started playing it, thought "yeah it's alright I guess" and decided to keep going, but when we got to about the 3rd level I turned to my friend and asked "do you actually know what's going on in the story?" to which he replied "not a bloody clue." I assumed this was still just the introduction part and the story would commence shortly, but sadly I was to be proven wrong.
Here's the full interpretation of the story as we understood it; we broke into a tall building, not at all sure why, then a bomb goes off and we have to escape from that building, then there's a few more missions where you're still escaping from that building, then you're out of the building and on the street trying to meet some woman with we guessed some kind of connection to them, then we're in a hospital walking around with a small boy, then we go to the zoo and talk to a strange man, then we blow up a ship, then we have to kill some guy who presumably is the antagonist in some way.
That's it. Sorry if you're annoyed I didn't put that in spoilers but a. I don't know how to and b. I don't think it really gives away the plot as there isn't really a plot. It just seemed to be the same battle played over and over in different scenarios until you get to the end.
Anyway the point after all that was have you ever played a game/seen a movie/other where you weren't sure if there actually was a plot, or just decided that there must not be?
