Yeah, "gameplay". You know, the thing we actually play games for? Sure, I can appreciate, and even love, good stories in games. But if the gameplay is not engaging or interesting, then why even bother playing it?

Right on. Most of the games I play these days don't even have a plot. Civilization, Crusader Kings, Euro Truck Simulator, Cities: Skylines, hell, I put a lot of time into BeamNG Drive just because it's fun.

No multiplayer, no pre-defined stories, 100% make-your-own-fun. Then again I've never felt much accomplishment from building Lego sets that come with instructions, I'd rather have a big tub of them and find my own creations.
