Fassbender? More like A**bender.
Game studios often spend years developing the intricate backstories behind the characters and settings in their games. The player becomes immersed in the details of that world as they read found notes, come across landmarks, or overhear conversations between NPC’s.

There’s plenty of directors that can world-build with a single image, but when it comes to video game flicks, all the backstory is usually crammed into some boring, hyper dramatic monologue at the beginning.
