But you are.

 

A game that allows me to interact within some of the cutscenes? OH GOD THIS IS SO TERRIBLE!! You actually attempted to call it too many cutscenes. I dont see the problem. It's an interactive cutscene and you dont like it. YOU are the problem. 

 

Also, it does immerse you in the game more than it would just watching the cutscene and you dont need to be frightened. Resident Evil 4 never frightened me. The only game that I feel can really frighten me these days is maybe a good Silent Hill. Does that mean that RE4 cant feel frightened anybody else just because it didn't really frighten me? 

 

Either way these interactive cutscenes are better and are welcomed in the future as long as they are done right( they did it perfectly in the demo when the hybrid started making his way toward galahad). I just feel that this isn't the ideal gameplay to show off at E3.

 

It would've been fine if you just kept it about them improving the gunplay or something.

 

But but but.. it has too many cutscenes! ..Stop it

Too many cutscenes can be a serious issue to some people. I get horribly bored when a game lets me play for a bit then takes control away on a constant basis. I remember playing Sly cooper thieves in time and becoming incredibly frustrated when levels were interupted by cutscene after cutscene.  Too many games are using cutscences as a cop out, games like bioshock prove you can have a solid narrative without taking control away from the player too often.

For story telling games cutscenes are must and developer just need to balance them as needed. There are people who like story oreitented games more than action part especially in europe thats why Beyond two souls sold 1million+ still. This is game trying to appeal to both gamers of action and story/charecters but more in Depth of telling the story. So, this is targated more towards small user base than larger user base of shooters first. So sony is catering every kind of gamer here instead of just focusing on larger user base for every game which is good but some people fail to understand and bash the developer/game too much. If someone dont like the game then ignore and move to the game they like instead of bashing the game for not being as they wanted.
