So the story just becomes something to progress through for a sense of accomplishment? That would explain something, but also be a really sad thing to reduce storytelling to.

You know how in a movie there's a scene, which then follows another scene, and then there's more scenes? Not really how story in a video game works. There can be minutes or even hours of gameplay in-between "scenes" so that shoddy story writing isn't necessarily as obvious or jarring.
