I enjoy cutscenes too. They show you important parts of the game, only with even better visuals. The only problem is, it takes you out of that suspension of belief. Sometimes I think it's better to keep it all on the in-game engine, to make it more fluid, because sometimes a really fancy cutscene makes the actual game look worse.

 

Yeah, a lot of people have been saying that lately. Fans, journalists, and some game developers. Personally, I love games with great cutscenes. The theater modes in MGS alone are worth doing cutscenes. You can watch the game like a movie. My grandma liked MGS 1 because of that theater mode.

FF remakes add cutscenes as well, and I like those. I never believed I was Solid Snake, so I guess I'm just one that doesn't worry about suspension of belief. It's all entertainment.

It's strange, most fans used to just oogle over cutscenes, but lately there has been a lot of backlash. Oh well, I hope developers don't listen to you guys, heh (not you in particular BenKenobi88).

I do hope that games make cutscenes skipable, though. Summons do get annoying.
