Halo 3: ODST. You start with your squad, get separated, get back together, and then the game is over. Nothing significant changes except some sexual tension is resolved and an engineer joins the humans for a brief moment.

A game I like, and I'm not sure this fits 100%, but Voices of the Void.
Keeping things as spoiler-lite as possible, you're a lone radioastronomer at a deep-space listening outpost in Switzerland. It's a horror game, so there are "things" out there, but whether or not you get involved is kind of up to you.
Thing do happen, but not to you. You are just a witness to events far beyond your comprehension.
This reminds me that there's an official fan translation for Persona 2: Eternal Punishment PSP version. It has some many quality of life improvements I was holding off on completing the duology until it was available.
Do you have links ? I'm interested

This isn't the CJ Iwakura patch, but if you're not into fan translation drama that won't mean a whole lot to you. It's fine!
Thank you !
What do we think about Everybody's Gone to the Rapture for this? There is a plot, there is a story, but you as the player have no active role in it. You don't even see it play out in real time. You're just there, after, looking at the holes left behind. Nothing changes from the start of the game until the end.
I absolutely loved it, but typing that out, I suddenly realize why most people thought it was really boring.
Spellforce 1
Tap for spoiler
The evil mage, who we hunt the whole game, just escapes from the hero character during the cutscene through the time portal that sends him back, where he understands what he have done, becomes the white mage and summons the hero character (as the game does at the beginning).
Might sound like an interesting plot but I was really annoyed the game ended up without giving me the ability to slap the bastard.
