But it was a 40-hour game at the bare minimum, so when you calculate the ratio of interactive gameplay vs. Several cutscenes in the latter title would run over 20 minutes in length and yeah, that's excessive. Being a JRPG fan, people would bemoan the long cutscenes in games like Xenosaga, for example. So, this begs the question: Do we even need non-interactive cutscenes, anymore? Pet Peeve: "Playing a movie" was always completely inaccurate They're going for a more "next-gen" style of storytelling. For example, Kojima Productions has already confirmed that Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain will have fewer cutscenes than you might expect, and Snake won't even talk too much. Now, with bigger and more dynamic worlds, we're seeing a change in how developers give us a storyline. It was during the original PlayStation days when the phrase "playing a movie" really came into vogue. Then you had the other group of naysayers, who said developers used the new advancement to limit play time. You had the old-school gaming purists, who didn't believe cutscenes (and in fact, narratives) even belonged in video games.
