Last time I checked there weren't that many decent writers involved in the gaming industry. So...



Even if teams suddenly started to hire writers with (most likely) zero experience in making GAMES ...

...something entirely scripted can hardly ever match anything that's happening directly between you, the player and the game. That said, for what it's worth, "Planescape: Torment" (here we go again...) still has the best pieces of interactive dialogue (thanks to its sophisticated scripting) I've ever seen in a commercial game.
