I never had any problem with how the story is told in video games and I guess I have to be a bit sorry for people who just can't enjoy story in videogames, 'cause sometimes it's a really fascinating experience (imho).
But that doesn't mean I'd hate non-story-games, I do cherish them aswell.
BTW I thought it's funny the author was so "insanely attached" to Gordon Freeman, for that is one of the characters I felt the least atttachment to, although I've ventured with him through 2 games and 1 expansion pack.
