I have no idea, not being a parent, nor do I know in what way you're saying they're becoming a problem... but it seems to me there's no reason they should be more of a problem than they have been for the past 30 years. Video games are not a new invention or anything.

There's been lots of amazing games released with bad or no story, in fact that's most games. But there's never been an amazing game released with bad or no gameplay.
Again, you're simply wrong... What Remains of Edith Finch has basically no gameplay. Even going back to Disco Elysium, there are some cool RPG systems in that game but I am not sure if they count as "gameplay", really.

Do the Telltale games or things like Life is Strange really have much on the gameplay front to defend? I haven't really played much in that genre. But there are plenty of people who would say those games are amazing.

It's hilarious that your position on the merit of a particular form of entertainment is to gatekeep by DOWNPLAYING the value of any actual artistic merit that anyone might consider important... It's like you're being a snob but in entirely the wrong direction.
