Story is important for adventure type games, unfortunately a good story is hardly ever seen. I mean, gamers are lauding MGS4 and GTA4 for their stories; that are infantile and over-the-top at best. We need some real writers to work in gaming.

Cut-scenes, OK, if they are fairly short and not too frequent. What I really hate tho is if a game starts with a long cutscene, especially if you can't skip it on a second playthrough. When I start a game, I want to start playing, not watch some prerendered bs for 5 minutes!

MGS4 has a very interesting story if you are willing to sit through long cutscenes.  Some games do use 'real writers' already.  Kojima rights the stories for his games because he is an artist.
