Not following the main Story Line/Arc of a Game?

I personally, like in the "Tales" games, not follow the main story line/plot/arc of the game. Why? Because it's too difficult for me personally at least anyways. In this game series, I prefer to level up my characters and fight monsters. How about you? Do you sometimes do that too in your view?
 
A 101 course in video game making can be summed up with games like Super Mario Bros. The story is there, but people do not play based on real-life logic. They play for the experience or move the character and level interactions. Not everything in the story has to make sense in a game. Most of the time it's not worth thinking about and the effort isn't always there. But there are nods to make you feel the emotion in modern games. Even if you don't agree with the way it was written you don't have to because it isn't your story.
 
If the game's storyline is worth playing for, I'm definitely going down that path while I consider doing other things as well.

I have my preference for interesting storyline for most of the games that I play. I want to know how far I can go with the tales. I rarely play games that have boring storylines.
