The story is mediocre or non-existent or poorly presented that you're better off just skipping it and only in it for the exp. (Means to an end.)
The story in SWTOR was shit because it was done by Bioware, not because of quest chaining.

Quest chaining can actually be done to where you can have an ongoing story, similar to how missions in XI worked.
