StaceyPowers Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 Both @killamch89 and @The Blackangel commented here that long and unskippable cutscenes can be irritating, particularly if they do not advance a story. I have to admit I actually tend to like cutscenes, short and long. Then again, I think maybe I’ve simply been lucky in playing games where they tended to contribute to story and character development. They give my brain a bit of a breather between the action, which I often need, or I can get fatigued/lose effectiveness. Do you typically like or dislike cutscenes, and what does it take to make a cutscene worthwhile to you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 I dislike cutscenes very much especially when it doesn't really add anything in terms of useful information in-game. I typically like my cutscenes to have some information which will help with world building and on how to complete the current quest/objective. I also like when I have the option to skip them and I don't like them lasting longer than 2-4 mins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 If it adds to the story, fine. If it doesn't, then why the hell is it there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingpotato Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 I have encounter a cutscene that I hated, some boring ones sure but nothing that I consider long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 I think cutscenes can be definitely good if you are into games like prince of persia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
