Not BECAUSE it's popular, People think the genre doesn't deserve to be that popular ,many people want games to move thier emotions , they need a great story and characters , FPS genre doesn't have depths in it , it's might deliver the fun factor but that's it .

As for myself I tried to like the genre many times , when I start I think it fun and all but I quit after 15 minutes or so , also Physics/animations are important to know the character better therefore they are important factor in the story telling , for example FF has always been about stylish movements which make us think that the character is cool ( or emo for some ) , in general FPS genre can't deliver what I want to see in my games , but I can totally understand  why some people like it.

But that's not true.

Games like DEUS EX and Half-Life 2 had some of the best storytelling in a video game.

Fixed.
