In my experience, the fights in 4E never really entered the fiction at all.
Pg. 42 is a vastly underused set of the 4E rules, and is basically where all the fiction comes in to the mechanics. I look at it the same way Spiritual Attributes gets overlooked in Riddle of Steel - it's just a few pages but it makes a world of difference.
That said, 4E is pretty terrible about feeding -back- into the fiction by itself.
