get used to your cinematic experiences

>muh arcade fun
Go back to your indie kikestarter pixel shit if you want 'arcade fun', or, as the rest of us call it, no-effort derivative pap that some hipster nu-male shat out in Game Maker. You might not be able to appreciate this, but mature gamers prefer the more nuanced gameplay and emotional depth that polished AAA titles can provide.

thats why i dont play most of them.
im replaying IWD now, I somehow suck more at this than 10 years ago but have lots of fun.
after Im gonna give a proper go with Pillars of Eternity.
Vote with your wallet, if devs notice drop in income due to people not buying 'cinematic' exp than we will see more games that focus on gameplay rather than lookin good and cinema like.

As a steam cuck you are always going to play either cinematic shit or indie scams
You should play older video games and stop making this kind of retard comment
I like action games with well-animated cutscenes.

Sorry anon
I'd say the problem is that theatrical experiences are amazing, but they end up getting confused with cinematic experiences.
In my book a theatrical experience is a rather generic description: something which employs techniques to become more impressive as an experience; while a cinematic experience is like watching a movie.
Despite all its flaws, it can't be denied that Undertale was pulling off good theatrics.
For example, the fight with Asgore:
>before the fight, the backdrop is the barrier, which gives a sense of magic as graphically it is different to everything the player has seen before
>in the opening scene to the fight, the game mimicks more classical games of its kind with pure and simple chiptune music, a textual description of the scene, and unmoving B&W graphics
>up until this point, Asgore is kind, but now the music stops and he whips out a giant red trident, destroying the player's "MERCY" button
>colours and animation suddenly appear in contrast to the imitation of a retro game, and a partially-chiptune partially-natural song based off of the previous tune starts
>in some cases after the fight that lead to fourth-wall breas, the game will pretend to crash
While it is still just a simply programmed, simply drawn game, these kinds of simple but creative techniques allow it to deliver comparable impact to games that take huge teams to make.
tl;dr: It's not about looking like a movie, it's about employing creative audio and visual techniques like old theatres did and still do.
