Games are boring.

I don't think it's the gameplay.

Are there any games with an intelligent concept or plot, or in the least ones that can be taken seriously and don't either have slapstick humor (Planescape) or a corny basis (Xenogears)?

I'm not serious, I just want to play serious games because I consider games art and I want serious or satirical art (Metal Wolf, anyone?). I don't play MGS for Hideo's famous comedy routine, I play it for the brilliant and unmatched gameplay perfection and deep story. I don't know when it became a crime to take a game's plot seriously, was it JRPGs that gave the concept a bad name?

And Deus Ex had some very rare slapstick scenes, but Planescape's is constant and overbearing. It ruins the game for me.
