I would take excellent gameplay with no story over excellent story with no gameplay. A game with no gameplay isn't really a game, is it? It's more of a movie that gives you pieces of control a few times. A game with no story on the other hand can provide the player with a variety of different experiences. You get better challenges, the subsequent accomplishment, exploration, learning enemies, learning worlds, etc.
I guess the question could really be phrased as "Do you like movies or video games?"
