Who said I'm dismissing the whole genre? The only reason I played Morrowind was because of how open-ended it was, and because of how immersive the world was. Without the immersiveness the open-endedness wouldn't have mattered to me, so with that game the perspective made all the difference. Same goes for GTA 3. I'll play Zelda or FF because of great gameplay or story, and the Fallout games just don't have enough to keep me interested for very long.
