Angelus said: I find it pretty amusing how many people are acting like the media is just trying to unfairly butcher this game before release lol It's absolutely excruciating watching "gameplay" of this title. I mean there's a fucking QTE/button prompts for something like a character doing a 3.2.1 countdown. Like seriously? You know it's bad when you gotta push triangle for a character to say 3....triangle, 2....etc. Honestly. I get the impression that the guys who made this realized at some point that there's way too much cutscene compared to gameplay so they just threw in button prompts everywhere to make the player feel like they're actually contributing to the experience. Mindboggling |
It's meant to keep you engaged throughout the entire game, even whilst you are not in actual control (ie a cutscene). Would you rather the character just say 3 2 1 grenade without you doing anything? Maybe you prefer that, and thats fine, but I like to feel engaged in a video game and the fact that they are actually letting you participate even in a cutscene is absolutely fantastic for me. Now instead of putting the controller down and watching the cutscene you can actually "play" a cutscene, even if it is just a button prompt.
