There is a fair amount of information on the web about stories in video games. I know when I started looking for articles it was hard to find any worth reading, so I figured I'd give anyone out there a head start.
Game Design as Narrative Architecture
Is a great article on narrative in games and environmental storytelling.
paranoidproductions.com
I would recommend anything from Richard Rouse III. “Seven Ways a Video Game Can Be Moral” and “Environmental Narrative: Your World is Your Story” are both great places to start.
What Happened Here?
Is a great presentation on environmental storytelling.
onethree.org/talks
“Player-Driven Stories: How Do We Get There?” is a great talk on ways to allow the player to branch the story and ways to let this happen that don’t kill the people making the content.
“No Explanation Necessary: Minimizing Exposition in Game” is a great talk if you can find it somewhere on the web or in the GDC vault.
