And I really don't like sandbox games, so I need a really good story or really compelling gameplay, and neither needs a huge map or tons of hours.

Don't try to please everyone. A good sandbox game doesn't need a story, a good story game doesn't need sandbox elements, and good gameplay can be really short.

Yeah a lot of these games that try and do a bit of everything seem to often fail to entertain anyone.
