I guess that is one of the main reasons why shooters never grip me as others games do. I need a story to play most games. I hate mindless violence and no reason other than "because you can". I don't need to prove anything to anyone online, so multilayer games without a point does nothing for me. Sport game don't need a story other than its a past time tradition. Storyline FTW!
Cutscenes are hit or miss with me. I seen some of the greatest cutscenes and worst cutscenes in a video game (hell some of the them from the same game).
I would say though, Blizzard has had some of the best cutscenes ever. In fact Blizzard has always to me had the perfect blend of cutscenes and story ever in a video game.
