I want to know everyone's opinions about cutscenes.

I'm very against front loading the player with story in the beginning, and I much rather the player find the lore in the world through exploring on their own rather than spoon feeding to them - if the information is relevant than I will make sure the player knows about it.

So... Typically as you reach the climax in your story, your characters are more involved and there is usually a lot of dialog, depending on the dynamic. I feel maybe after the first or second dungeon, introducing the player to a longish cutscene is good, and even one after the next dungeon.

What do you all think? How long is too long for a cutscene?

Just beat the last of us 2 last night and starting jedi: fallen order right now, both use unreal engine & when I say i knew 80% of jedi's buttons right away because they were the same buttons as TLOU2 its ridiculous, even the same narrow hallway crawl and barely-made-it jump they do. Unreal Engine is just big budget RPG Maker the way they make games nearly identical at its core lol.
