Yup. In game cut-scenes are really only ever used when pre-rendered ones can't work.

TBH it was fine 15-20 years ago. Now I feel cheated because I assume them as real time graphics. God of war 3 to many recent games are following this trend to deceive people.

They aren't trying to deceive people. As the article says it's to help with load times. The only big games that don't do this are rpgs since the player can change things. GOW, Uncharted, tlou, ryse, killzone, knack, etc. all use pre-rendered cut-scenes.
