See this is my take on it, I agree with you. Story is all well and good but if the gameplay sucks then I will not enjoy the game. That was FFXIII's problem. The game was more linear than any other FF I have ever played.

Even the combat was linear! You only controlled one character and the rest used AI actions you could not directly control. It was horrendous.
