The story in Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock is criticized for being a cheesy quest mode that fails to engage players meaningfully, with a lackluster credits sequence and a steep learning curve that may deter beginners. Ultimately, the narrative feels secondary to the game's set list, which is where the true appeal lies.
- “The cheesy quest mode storyline and lame credits sequence make it difficult for beginners to enjoy the game.”
- “Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock tries to engage players in a quest to reclaim rock, but sadly it reminds us that the genre is only as good as its set list.”
