Try to play Oblivion if you do like what you are saying. then come back here
in Final Fantasy the gameplay is as much important as the storyline, it requires tactics, especially 13, its very fast paced.

No, I'm really going to have to correct you there.  Most of the main developers for Final Fantasy have stated the focus of Final Fantasy is the storyline and graphics.  In fact, the series creator, Sakaguchi, is famous for stating he chose to make Final Fantasy (an RPG) because he wouldn't be good at making an action game, but would be better at writing a story.

In any event, while the creators of Final Fantasy have stated the focus of the series have been about their plots and 'creating a game that had a cinematic feel', there's just the undeniable fact that the vast majority of Final Fantasy games do not require much in the way of planning and tactics.  There are numerous other RPG series, both JRPG and WRPG, that are more complex and require more thought than Final Fantasy, including other games made by SquareEnix themselves.

FFXIII

you should play it.

What about it?  One game out of more than 60 Final Fantasy games doesn't change the series focus.  And even the creators stated the emphasis of FFXIII was on the storyline and 'cinematic feel' just like previous games.  Just because it might have better gameplay than its predecessors, doesn't mean it was the focus.  Remember, FFVIII and X also had better focus on the gameplay, but the story and graphics still took front seat.
