Many might construe this as an argument in favour of more puzzles and greater complexity.
How would you challenge the players mind further with story alone without creating a hostile ‘avant-garde’ (if the term can apply) feeling to the way we react to the story?
And there are already an increasing number of games that challenge the morality of a player; Fallout 3, which you already mentioned, BioShock, etc. (I don't know how many, or even if any, AGs do this... I've never played any games from 'House of Tales', but they're likely to have made some games which may accomplish this, from what I've read).
