For me:
Gameplay
Story
Soundtrack and/or art style.
 
If the story didn't grab me or the characters are not interesting/relatable (or whatever) I will quit playing, no matter how good that gameplay is. Game has to be more than just gameplay to make me want to play it. It doesn't always have to be much though, sometimes atmosphere is enough. And by "atmosphere" I mean setting, art style/direction, soundtrack/ambient and writing.

I suggest to read a novel ✌️
 
In fact all things
:loldog
I mean, yes but in order. Like, if gameplay is bad or mid, it's to have a good story, if not, a god soundtrack or art style.

Actually there isn't all, cause I don't care for graphics, so good or bad graphics, it's not important.

And yes, I prefer gameplay over everything else.

I'd put soundtrack over story personally because at least even if the story is bad we can enjoy the ost.

If the gameplay is bad I think no matter how good the rest is that'd be hard to appreciate...

I guess that dude was right, you really don't want to hear other people's perspectives, but instead you look for the ones that will validate your own opinions. I really wish you folks would just stick to twitter for this kind of stuff.::cirnoshrug
 
Gameplay is the most important element of a game for me. Story comes second, and character design comes third. Graphics and music aren't as important, as long as they're not painful to watch/listen to.
