Anyone else think the kids in the cinematics are just a BIT overdramatic? The scenes get done and I'm just like...

LMFAO that, sir, is my new go-to punchline :rofl:

I wish there was more of them, and that they were all longer. And actually added something.

I like how your character is in the background of a lot of them - that's a nice touch.

It's always other players who are the 'main cast' though. I'd like to see my character get up there and actually say something, instead of just sitting in the back. I even have trouble spotting him in some of the cutscenes.

The Asian guy is annoying the closer to the end you get. Completely swaps with the "Frenchy" guy with braids. I kinda did wish that our character talked in cutscenes. I mean, they had the voice actors already, so why not?

i mostly always see who ever the host is in the cut scenes

No. No, it's not.

I was thinking it would be like three randomplayers would be having a discussion with our names over the top or something....not "oh okay we're watching some geeks talk about their geeky world gettin all freaky serious while my character smokes a cigarette on his 30 minute state mandated break"
Especially the one where they're all pissed.
"Let's go kick their asses....bring it in....on three say security.... 123, SECURITY!!!!"

I play on the PC and my cut scenes aren't too bad - they're clichéd, yes, but no worse than most stuff that's spewed out from Hollywood in the past 50 years. Maybe they aren't the same on each gaming platform... but if they are, then there must be scenes that I haven't seen yet despite completing the game, or you're simply over-reacting.

If your character did speak in the cut scenes, what are the odds that your next complaint would be along the lines of "but that's not what I would say..." ?

Incidentally, there are technical considerations also - it takes up much less resources to have a fixed cut scene that has a background figure with minimal animation using your current character settings. Sure your character settings could be used for one of the main roles in the scene, but you'd be complaining that there's a long pause before cut scenes start due to the additional burden placed on your hardware this would cause.

I like how the Asian guy goes from being a complete cupcake worrying about how his brother joined Security at the start, to being a complete Jihadist towards the end, to masterminding the attempt to destroy the Ark in the"What If" missions. I personally love the Irish Resistance character (he's got I.R.A. written all over him) and the Bald Black Security character (he's got that NYC street vibe to him).

The Asian resistance guy gets SO annoying. Mr corn-rows and the gnarly Irish guy are having a good little debate, and he just jumps in all "RAR RAR RAR [censored] FOUNDERS"
