It's kinda give and take. First off video games simply don't have the best writers. If you're a great writer you're not going to pick video games as your profession, you most likely would aim for movies or barring that, TV if you don't want to write books.
So I mean I kinda get it, for me it's very hard to play a 30+ hour single player game of any kind any more unless I feel the story is half way decent. I need to have something to chew on besides just gameplay/exploration for that length of time.
But on the other hand, most video game stories do objectively kinda ... suck. If they were movies you would probably be a lot more critical of them.
