Line 61:
* ''[[Galactic Civilizations]]'': the backstory has a few minor impacts on the events in a game, but most of the time people ''and'' the AI just run on cold hard realpolitik. There's also a campaign mode, that most people just ignore in favour of Gigantic galaxies, no items, final destination.

* Common in [[Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game|MMORPGs]] in general. In ''[[EverQuest]]'' and ''EverQuest 2'' a lot of the players who enjoy the end game raiding aspect not only don't care about the story and "fluff", but even consider it an annoyance [[Prepositions Are Not to End Sentences With|up with which they should not be forced to put]].
* Every MMORPG with a team mechanic falls prey to this. "Hey guys, wait up, I want to read the history of Doomy McEvilton and why he wants the [[MacGuffin]] of Glory to...ah nuts to this, where's my XP?"
