The cinematic era isn't coming to an end though.

Do you guys really expect every game to use the same type of story telling as Half Life, especially Japanese developed games? As much as I like for video games to be considered an art form, they aren't. They are entertainment. Gameplay is a bigger concern than how a story is told. Even if a game's story was a literary masterpiece, if that same game isn't very enjoyable when it comes to gameplay, then I will not continue to play it. The writer of the article is entitled to his own opinion but he shouldn't have to force us to chance other peoples' opinions. Therefore, as long as the game is ultimately fun enough to play, then I don't care if a game's story is progressed with or without cutscenes.
