i love that masahiro sakurai has purroduced a rather long series of bite-sized videos on game design, but i rather fundamentally disagree with the way the thinks about games
@aescling is this about Other M
@aescling youtube is broken so i know nothing about the video it was just a joke about other m not only having unskippable cutscenes but a theatre mode
this video in purrticular. to be blunt, if you are narratively contextualizing a game with cutscenes, i would hope they cohere with the game you are making, to an extent that i would consider it a completely reasonable artistic choice to not let people skip it. if the cutscenes are there i would HOPE they are impurrtant
