You know how modern devs do a lot of focus testing and tracking overall completion rates of all their games? Turns out that most people stop playing at boss fights. Modern casual gamers just give up and don't finish the game after dying 4+ times. It's the same deal with puzzles. If the player can't solve it within 5 minutes then too many people will put the game down and not finish it.
So in order to make sure as many people as possible finish their games they remove as many roadblocks as they can. They remove boss fights and puzzles, they give players generous autosaves and make sure every fight is tuned so precisely a potato can get through it.
This is doubly true for the final boss. Afterall, they already "finished" the game, so why not reward them with a sick cutscene that doesn't require a lot of thought or input? They just fought their way through the hardest part of the game afterall.
This is all done to make sure as many players as possible get to experience the epic storyline. And no, this isn't done because dev's think they have made a quality story and that they want everyone to see it. It is done because when it's time for the sequel 2-3 years down the road there's a lot of players invested into seeing what happens next. This is also why a lot of publishing houses make authors write trilogies: they can charge 3x the price for the same story the author wrote and it's not as daunting for newcomers to stare down a list of a dozen books and have no idea where to start.
This is also why devs tend to remove numbers from a franchise title once they get into the 4-5 region. They wouldn't want players to think that they need to actually play the other games to enjoy the new one. Remember folks, Mass Effect 3 is the best time to enter the franchise.
It's all about building franchises and maximizing sales potential.
Japan largely has an entirely different attitude about gaming and that's why all the most unique and fresh games come from them

As of today I can count a grand total of two western series I enjoyed, excluding the Retro and Rare stuff, which is hybrid

Didn't the Japs literally invent QTEs with Shenmue?

Having QTE's =/= Being only a QTE. It's not like it Shadow of Mordon's Sauron or this: >>319222780
