Although i agree with what the article is arguing, i personally enjoy adventure games JUST because of the story. Don't want to kill monsters, don't want to level up, don't even want to have an internet connection to play adventures.
All i care about is the cool story that is told, and that we get to be the lucky ones to play out the main character OF the story.
Then you also get with that:
a) good or bad dialogue
b) usually good backdrops
c) puzzle solving
and of course
d) watching your character run/walk/jog across each end of the screen through locale, to locale, to locale because you forgot to do something
......
