I'm curious to hear your thoughts on the cinematics within the game. Do you consider them a mere luxury, or do you believe they significantly enhance the overall gaming experience and atmosphere? Moreover, I'm interested in your perspective on the additional effort put into creating these cinematics. Could the development time have been better allocated to other aspects of the game? Would it suffice to reserve cinematics for special events and characters integral to the storyline, such as boss battles and key characters? Is it truly necessary to include a cinematic for every seemingly insignificant NPC? What do you think?
It's Very Essential, I bought the game for the Cinematics, I also bought it because I'm a D&D nerd, while yes I don't mind the birds eye view (it's better than 1st person which makes a game unplayable, actually games are still playable in 1st person but it's irritating like an itch you can't scratch, birdseyes eye is worst than 3rd person which is more over the shoulder), I enjoy playing Pokemon (from Yellow which lets you have Pikachu as your starter Pokemon, to Black 2) and D&D so the Birdseye view Isn't an issue, however the cinematics adds a nice touch for people who enjoy the roleplay aspect of an RPG, like if I was RPing a Paladin of Tyr or Kelemvor, half the Companions would already be dead like the ones you get before meeting Wyll, (Specifically the Vampire, Sharran and Gith) , in a RPG you have to talk to everyone, skipping dialogue is considered blasphemy.
