Not necessarily. I would argue that the core of a RPG is role playing, as it says on the box. In my opinion, immersive world building and character building are the most important elements. In theory, an RPG could do without an overarching story.

Using tadpoles / becoming a mind flayer is strongly advertised by the story but contradicts role playing: you build up a character just to erase it again later. This is a very risky approach for a RPG and you'd need a strong story to hold this together.
