Description
Narrative is mostly conveyed through Dialogue. Yet it may reach the player/PC through a combination of different explorations which include a Narrator, Cut-Scenes, a Helper Voice, scattered and collectible Audio Logs, Radios, conversations with NPC during (Dialogue), or even by Eavesdropping NPC.
Examples
Cut-Scenes in Assassins Creed In Ecco the Dolphin, other NPC tell the story, for which the PC has to address them (Address Others). In Patapon, the Narrative sometimes interweaves with Levelled Performance, because the unlocking of sound performance abilities is accompanied with a new piece of the story [pending: double check this].
