Fair enough...

I suppose it all comes down to a few things - things which should probably be firmly established if this debate is to go on (now that we're casting aspersions against groups of gamers).
WHERE IS MY KORORINPA 3
I understand the point he's making, and it's definitely different for every game. That said though, one of the things I'm liking less and less about Nintendo games is the slowly disintegrating stories, so making comments like this doesn't bode well for me. It's cool that some people like gameplay and nothing but gameplay, but for me a good story can make literally any game better (even Mario). I fear a future where everything they put out is shallow and lifeless (again, to me) because they focused only on gameplay and none on story or characters or anything else.
I hope they keep cutscenes. But at the very least make them skip-able.
Currently playing:
Bloodbath Paddy Wagon Ultra 9
I agree, for example it could be used for voice acting in Zelda games.
They have there place but generally speaking keep them short and tell stores in game. I think they were a good idea in a games like bayonett 2 or mortal kombat 9.
Many didn't like Bayonetta 2's story but I did. That said, on repeat play throughs I'm glad I can skip the cutscenes. One of the more annoying levels to replay is one where there's an in game conversation between you and the kid that's unskippable. You have to slowly walk up the stairs as the conversation unfolds. Pretty much every other part of the plot is a convenient skippable cutscene.
Looks like someone has taken a peek at the Master Chief Collection.
It really depends on the game. I personally prefer games to tell their stories through optional missions and the environment, rather than lengthy cutscenes. But some games don't need cutscenes at all, while others demand them.
Depends on the genre, depends on the game. I certainly wouldn't expect lengthy cutscenes in Mario Kart, but how would Metal Gear Solid work without them? Or is he finally admitting that Other M was an unjustifiable abortion?
Sigs are dumb. And so are you!
