Has Voice Acting killed stories?

Not at all they have just gotten better. More likely it is nostalgia for games in the past that you loved and had great stories that would lead a person to think a  that everything new is worse. Most of the stories suck, but there are still some good ones in mass effect, uncharted, dead space, Assassin's Creed and countless rpgs.

Sure and Assassins Creed story to me is amazing. Im finding myself not enjoying alot of the newer stories and alot of them seem to be really short these days.

Maybe when next gen comes I'll be able to look back and see if it was truely nostalgia that makes me feel like game's stories have goten worse.  I want a new age RPG that made me feel something like ff4-10 did.

Maybe it's the aging process.

It probably is and I try to avoid that thinking as much as possible because gaming is full of many things to enjoy. It is easier to love things as a child or teenager because there are less responsibilities, the world is new and the brain has not fully developed. As we age we analyze things more and do not just sit down and enjoy things care free. The challenge is in my opinion is to still love the things you did, but be open to innovation and new ways of thinking. The human mind is full of creativity and will continually make great new stories as well as recycle them.
