Agreed. I don't get people that want to skip all the cutscenes. Why even play story focused games if you're gonna do that?


Perhaps not in this case but generally if you are going to replay a game to find some hidden gems or to play different story decisions for alternate endings, it would be nice to skip the parts you already know.

I can agree on that, but on your first playthrough?

Oh and the OP gave a replay score of 0, so doesn't seem likely that they'd be playing through it again and needing to skip any cutscenes either.


If you are actually interested in the story, then of course. But I don't know why devs don't even give the option to skip the cutscenes.

But the more I think of it, the more I believe it's technical reasons. The game is constantly doing "stuff" during the cutscenes, they are essentially part of the game on a technical side. So I guess that the game loads assets constantly and especially at the end of a cutscene they load assets to the gameplay part that is to come, thus reducing load times (which are close to non-existent in this game). If you would skip, the game would bother you with a "please stand by while loading"-screen.
