You can say if I want to watch cinematics, why not watch a movie? But by that logic, if you want to just read subtitles, why not read a book?įor me, a quality storyline has a lot to do with whether or not I enjoy a game. But when it's acted by a high-quality cast including the likes of Andy Serkis, those parts are a joy and, yes, they add to the game. If you're not looking for a cinematic narrative, then don't play this game. I can read at least twice as fast as I can listen, so if games are cutscene-intensive I turn on subtitles and click straight through the 'voice acting' as soon as I've finished reading a line.ĭo people really sit there listening to people talk for half an hour between interactive parts of a game? Couldn't you just watch a movie instead? So because the game has voice acting, that means there's no gameplay? If you're not concerned with a storyline, to each his own, but that's why you don't understand why I would consider something like voice acting important.Movieman523: I've never understood that. Along the same lines, the delivery of the storyline is important as well, and goes a long way to immerse you in the game world.
