Hushups Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 (edited) Is there any kind of way to play this game without actually having to play it? The only element that I enjoy about this game is the story. The voice acting, the plot twists, the decisions to make... all great stuff. I really do enjoy it. But then when the cutscene ends it's time to go trudging back into the world to grind away on the same quests I've been doing in MMO's for the last 10 years. So, any chance that this game will ever see a cut scene mode? Something where you can enjoy all of the elements of the story without having to do the grind? Something where when I'm finished I don't even have a character anymore, it just kicks me back to the character creation screen so that I can go through another main storyline. It feels like such a waste to already be sick of this game without even getting half way through one class main storyline.

Samy_Merchi Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 I think we'll eventually get to the point where we'll have a greater number of "interactive movies" in the game industry, but I doubt any existing game will ever be retrofitted to that. Looking forward to the convergence of the gaming/movie industry in 5-20 years though. It's an interesting time to be alive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the reasons why it was so easy for me to get hooked into the Mass Effect series. I dunno, it just bums me out knowing that all of these great cutscenes are on my hard drive waiting to be enjoyed but will never see the light of a monitor screen.

Samy_Merchi Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 I know how you feel -- NWN, NWN2, KOTOR, KOTOR2, JE, ME, ME2, DA, DA2...I'd love to watch them all as interactive movies without having to do all the fighting in-between. I think the chances of that happening are negligible though. The best we can get is somebody doing a video walkthrough with the fight parts cut out, but that wouldn't be interactive...
