"people" should not be construed as "all people," but I do think the majority of people will choose gameplay over story. I will be the first to admit that a good story can help a game with struggling gameplay, or that a terrible story can drag good mechanics down, but in the end, they are video games. We play them and the interactivity of it is what causes us to choose games over TV or books or whatever.
