do you like games where half of the experience is watching


that's cool and all, but I can watch that on Youtube. I have no interest in a "game" where I stop every few minutes to watch like it's a damn movie

discuss

there is plenty of gameplay.

it's like MGS, where you might have a bunch of cinematic elements, but you also have fleshed out stealth and combat mechanics.

It's been a few years but I don't remember The Last of Us feeling like a cinematic. Other than it having really pretty graphics.

At least in comparison to Metal Gear Solid games that have lengthy cutscenes.

why?

there are games with different gameplay to cinematic ratios, where you can find stuff that's almost exclusively gameplay, and stuff that's almost exclusively cinematics/narrative, and there are audiences for both spectrums.

if a person doesn't like one concentration, they still have their options.

Take out the cutscenes and TLOU is a 15 hour game. It just makes little sense

15 hour game that makes no sense.

Sounds appealing

Why do you care about sense if you hate story cutscenes? Please don't tell me you like Metal Gear games.

The whole thing of youre just watching a movie with that game is so cringey and all I can think of are like young teens trying to be cool by hating on whats popular because theyre jealous that they dont get to play it for whatever reason.

It definitely irks me a bit that what you're talking about are referred to as "games" and not something like "interactive movies", though I'd disagree that TLOU specifically (at least TLOU1, don't really know much about 2) falls into that category. It's plot-heavy, but it's still clearly a game.

I don't mind it. Some games are pretty cutscene heavy. But yeah while it can get to a point where the gameplay suffers for it, I don't think it's always like that.

I'm not interested in TLOU however.

I'm tired of doing one or two actions then my char starts moving on his own in some cinematic, and I just sit there and watch him with thumb up my ass like an idiot

I legitimately don't. We probably have different interests in the games we play. Which is why it confuses me that you are playing things that you do not enjoy. Just...don't play those games?
