I totally agree.
Most dont realise that videogames is the best venue there is for storytelling. It can tell more complex and longer stories than a movie, and it doesnt take years and years to go through like TV series, nor does it require running through the pages of a book. On top of all that it contains also visual and audio stimuli, it allows you to immerse yourself in a totally strange new world.
In short, its why i like games. Story is always an important part of it for me.
