hold out for twin mirror early next year...

Twin Mirror is pretty much a fail, but maybe you might like this one:

https://themediumgame.com/

Great story and graphics — if your graphics card can make it.

As of Twin Mirror, why wait if you wanna play it now?

However, think twice about it ...

“Similar to Dontnod's Life Is Strange, Twin Mirror is an interactive feature movie focusing on the story [...]. The small puzzles are the only bigger challenges for players. [...] The Rest are long dialogue passages and the cumbersome investigating of the environment. Technically, all this seems very old-fashioned: the city is empty, details are hardly available and the lifeless facial expressions of the characters do not reflect emotions. [...] The Story remains superficial and lengthy despite several endings. [...] Games like Life Is Strange were able to approach similar themes more sensitively through their episode structure. [...] Twin Mirror, on the other hand, looks like a fast-paced Monster-of-the-Week episode of an average TV series. [...] Twin Mirror disappoints with a superficial and lengthy detective story. Topics such as social mismanagement and profound psychological problems are only briefly touched upon and hardly come into their own in the unspectacular history. [...] This is not enough to achieve the quality of Dontnod's earlier works.”

The Walking Dead, you need to play it now, seriously, the best game of the type of games you like. Even though its about zombies and all that, the story and choices are amazing, play it, you won't regret it.

I'd like to add that this person most likely means the games by Telltale (there are other Walking Dead games)

They are Telltale games though..

Yeah, many got nothing in common with tell why but who cares, they all good games

"Good games" are highly subjective. There are a bunch of games on your list I personally didn't like. I'd agree that Telltales story-driven games like the Game of Thrones one could be a good match, though.

Truth.

But at least, he/she didn't say “the ONLY good ...”

That way, one can see it as a suggestion and take it as a matter of personal taste, and agree or not.

This is what I was referring to:

So basically, it's a random list of games that person liked. Too long and too random to answer the OP's question or help them find their next strongly story-focused game. When I ask for recommendations, I'd rather see 5 suggestions with a brief explanation of why I might like them than 50 that I'd each have to google or search in Steam to even find out if they are story-driven or not.

"want to know if theres more of story driven games like it"
The person showed just that, almost all of those are story driven games.
I don't see where they asked for detailed paragraphs on each game.

"When I ask for recommendations" didn't you both just agree that everyone has different opinions on what games are good and bad? It sounds like you think the list is invalid because you personally didn't like some games on the list, you don't know if this "random list" helped OP or not.

'Story driven games like it' -> games that are 90% about story, like in this one. The other 10% are minor puzzles and looking for things to click on.

Platformers with a little bit of story, like Fez, aren't story driven games, they're still platformers. GTA games are primarily crime life simulators with a lot of driving, vehicles, minigames and FPS aspects. The story missions don't turn them into primarily story-driven games. If The Curse of Monkey Island counts, then every P&C adventure game ever created fits the bill. They all have a story. And the Goose game? Come on. :)

The person posting that list said they listed them because 'they're good games', not because they're 'story-driven games like Tell Me Why'.

Check out Unavowed:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/336140/Unavowed/
It's an Urban fantasy where you play as someone who was possessed for a year and forced to do awful things against your will. You're rescued by and join The Unavowed who are a group of magical individuals who investigate supernatural phenomena. An adventure game with moderate puzzle solving and choice mechanics.

Another game is The Red Strings Club:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/589780/The_Red_Strings_Club/
The game is primarily centered around a unique puzzle mechanic where you play as a bartender and make various cocktails that maniuplate your patrons' emotions. You're doing so to make them spill info on a corporate mind control scheme. There's other mechanics too based around each sequences narrative. A really well written game. Again mild puzzles and choice mechanics.

King's Quest Reboot:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/345390/Kings_Quest/
Modernization of the classic Sierra adventure game series, TellTale-ified basically. This one has some more substantial puzzle solving, Although it's not the punishing level of difficulty from the old games. It's a collection of stories from King Graham's past told as bedtime stories to his young niece, Gewndolyn. It's charming and gets surprisingly deep by the end. It also has some choice mechanics.

This is a super under-rated game IMO, Heaven's Vault:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/774201/Heavens_Vault/
This game has some of the deepest lore I've encountered in a game, especially an indie. You play as an archeologist exploring many ancient ruins throughout a dream-like nebula. A long the way you solve hieroglyphic style puzzles, deciphering more and more of an ancient language as your journey progresses. Truly awesome game and I was impressed by the variation of its choice mechanics as well.

I'll also second some of the Japanese adventure games that were recommended earlier. A.I The Somnium Files is fantastic, it's very over the top but with genuine emotion at the core of it. Also the Phoenix Wright games are all time classics. I tried to limit the recommendations to games with choice & consequence mechanics, and the PW games are linear, but absolutely must play games IMO.

Soma
SOMA is a sci-fi horror game from Frictional Games .... It is an unsettling story about identity, consciousness, and what it means to be human.

Firewatch
“Firewatch is a rare and beautiful creation, that expands the possibilities for how a narrative game can be presented, without bombast or gimmick.”
Rock, Paper, Shotgun

Dreamfall Chapters
Play as Zoë Castillo, a young woman seeking answers to her own identity; Kian Alvane, a disgraced Apostle and assassin seeking redemption; and Saga, a mysterious child trapped in a house between worlds. Experience an engaging story about choices and consequences....

Analogue: A Hate Story
Back in the 25th century, Earth launched a generation ship into deep space, with the goal of establishing the first interstellar colony. It dropped out of contact and disappeared, never reaching its destination. Thousands of years later, it has finally been found.

Hate Plus
A sequel to Analogue: A Hate Story that tells a whole new hate story of its own. Analogue players can pick up where their finished save files left off, and new players can start fresh in Hate Plus.
A dark visual novel about transhumanism, cosplay, cake-baking, and the slow patriarchal erosion of freedoms taken for granted.

[irn.GII]

Gonna go ahead and double the recommendation for Dreamfall Chapters, and would also throw a strong recommendation in for Dreamfall: The Longest Journey as well although it's quite a bit older and a smidge different.

And since we're on the subject, the original The Longest Journey gets a strong recommendation as well, but that's a more standard point and click adventure as opposed to something with more direct control.

Dreamfall: TLJ might be one of my favorite games of all time, even if they did feel the need to shoehorn in some pointless combat because 360 era.
