I've never understood the recognition this game gets for it's story, it seemed so dorky and clumsy to me.
"Do you feel like a hero?" Not particularly, but my options were to drop the phosphorus or stop playing. Even though I can tell my character is going insane I can't do anything to stop it, so the bizarre guilt-tripping falls flat.
The story isn't worth playing through the game as well. If you want a similar story done well go watch Apocalypse Now or something, don't wade your way through a game fans admit has sub-par gameplay to experience an imitation.
Maybe my expectations were too high, I played it after seeing a few glowing LTTP threads, hearing it talked about on podcasts as having a mind-blowing story, etc and when I finished it I just thought "That's it?"
