I can say that I agree with you. I suppose a positive about it is that if the story's bad, it doesn't waste as much of your time :P However, there are some stories that are rather short and simplistic, yet are still very effective. Cabinets and Genetic Memory are a few examples of some. Still, I don't think it should be come another cliched trend.
