Planscape Torment easily has the best story in gaming, period. However, what you call dumbing down, I call evolution and refinement. Part of the reason why WRPGs have become so popular isn't just the technology improving and allowing for more interactive story-telling, but also the fact that these games are now more accessible for people beyond the niche hardcore RPG players. The story-based decisions I'm making these days are far more involving than most old school RPGs (except Planescape).
