This is one of those topics that has the initial appearance of being "deep", but becomes more rediculous the more you think about it, IMO.

Only when you think about it simplistically. In the future it's going to be super important. Story will become more important, but the role of story and its structure will change dramatically.

I totally agree... what I mean is that the "games are better without story" argument falls on its face pretty quickly when it's presented as a sweeping declaration. Some games obviously don't need story, and that's great. Other games obviously do use storytelling to help create amazing experiences.
