I wouldn't say that, back in the day, he did too much to make the genre what it was. Tim Schafer, Ron Gilbert, Noah Falstein and Hal Barwood* did it, but Tiller - at least in my opinion - is a great artist/painter that has yet to prove what is capable of in designing an adventure game.

Yes. Really.
I believe that I said he was ONE of the guys, not the only guy. His art was inspirational to those who came after.
He was a great artist on a great team, so he knows the value of a good story and voice acting. Many dissapointing games are made by low-budget companies that don't seem to understand the need for quality writing and voice acting.
You did see the trailer right? It looks very amusing.
Sierra put out a lot of decent games, but the production values were never as good as Lucas Arts. The only game on your top ten list that I enjoyed was LSL3. Everthing else, especially GK, was boring due to soddy story lines.
