A Poll for the Next Article

I am currently planning on writing a long article/essay/guide about 'the reasons why we like the adventure games that we like' and I need your help. Well, it could be based on my own experiences or common sense but I do not want to limit this with me and I believe common sense is always pointing old classics. I do not want to sound like "'Grim Fandango' 'Monkey Island' 'Broken Sword' are great examples and you cannot do a better adventure" because respecting the classic value of these titles, it is simply not true. I want it to be about whole genre judged fairly without exception. So it also can be a nice guideline for game developers which does not say that the best is already done.

You can answer these questions in the comments. Please avoid cliches like "It has to have good puzzles and good story". You do not have to put numbers, nor have to question all of them. Just answer so I can consider your opinions while writing the article. Thanks in advance.

2. What was your best moment while playing adventure games?
