Frankly if you're worried about skipping the stories in FPS and RTS games and worrying about it, I wouldn't.  Bth of those genres are about gameplay first second and third, and story 4th.

I didn’t mention any FPS (don’t play those). StarCraft, in my opinion, was an anomaly when it comes to stories but Blizzard games used to always carry a good story….the Warcraft story was so good it spawned probably the greatest MMO we will ever see.

But more on topic, I am referring to RPGs (I mentioned Chained Echos as an example).

Again it could just be me, but I’m fishing to see if anyone is in the same boat.
