For the first time in my life I'm wishing a game had more cutscenes instead of zero cutscenes

A happy person with hearts around them

Hopefully this doesn't sound overdramatic but cutscenes are a plague on videogames and developers who put cutscenes in their games should go to federal prison. Sentencing guidelines: 10 days served for every one minute of cutscenes in a game.

When I sit down to play a game I just want to play. Push buttons. Press keys. Move a mouse. If I wanted to watch a movie, I've got a TV in the other room and free trials to six different streaming services. Why am I being punished just because Kojima didn't get into film school? Why do I have to helplessly watch my competent character turn into a clueless idiots? It's infuriating!
