Poll: Cutscenes

[traceur_]

I LOVE cutscenes. though the aforementioned unskippable that you have to go through every time a boss rapes you, is annoying but still, I love them.

I only like them if they aren't long as hell or unskippable.

I don't mind cutscenes, provided of course, they're of reasonable length and there isn't more of them then gameplay.

I can watch cutscenes if they're relavent to whats going on.

Cut scenes are often crucial for telling stories. They don't help with immersion though.

If games are to evolve as an art form they cannot be used often.

If a game is not art add cut scenes so we can at least have a good story.

The story in Half Life 2 and its episodes is hard to appriciate for me because I have not played Half Life and know very little about the story. The elimination of cut-scenes severely reduces that amount of back-story that can be told.

Since most games do not have artistic merits let alone much immersion, cut-scenes should still be used prevelentely.

as long as its not MGS4 length or Indigo Prophecy

What was wrong with Indigo Prophecy? You mean that Indigo Prophecy's cut-scenes were too long like MGS4?
