You know, I used to say that too... but Xenosaga spoiled me. First RPG where I've actually really looked forward to the cutscenes. Star Ocean III, OTOH, pissed me off because the cutscenes were stupid and didn't need to be FMV anyway.

 

SO3's cutscenes were very good considering when the game originally came out.  A few awkward pauses is not that bad considering it was more likely the fault of the fact that the game was originally in Japanese

My problem isn't the awkward pauses or anything like that.  It's more along the lines of "Why do we need a cutscene for this?"  Xenosaga used cutscenes to do things it couldn't do without them.  To me, it felt like Star Ocean III used cutscenes for the sake of using them at times.
