Do you usually skip cutscenes when playing a game?

[Danex Darkfire + 1,712]

If I've already seen the cutscene then yeah, but if I haven't I'll watch it

[advfox 698]

I don't watch cutscenes anymore after my first playthrough. I always skip them if I get the option to.

[Jilly Shears 2,144]

Skip them unless they're unskippable or if I've already seen them.

[Ruby Rose 8,591]

Only when I've lost to a boss and keep resetting

[Dio Brando 5,810]

Depends really on the game

 

 

the MGS series is 90% cutscenes so skipping them will cause to miss a TON of things in the game...heck MGS4 is a giant cutscene in itself

 

Other games like KH or Final Fantasy sometimes I only skip the cutscenes if either I'm doing a speedrun(like my 6 hours speed run in KH2) or if a cutscene annoys me(looking at you Hope in FFXIII you annoying little bitchy brat)

[Taeyeon 1,137]

Nah not really, unless I'm just really antsy.

Personally, I hate skipping cutscenes in video games, because to me, it undermines the adventure I'm experiencing.  I want to experience it in all its glory and splendor, and watching the cutscenes allows me to do just that.  One of the things I love most about video games is story and character development, so cutscenes are a must for me.  The only way for me to skip cutscenes is if I'm fighting a boss I can't beat, I skip the cutscenes leading to the boss since I'm fighting it multiple times.  But other than that, you won't see me skipping cutscenes.

Games like KH1 had no cutscene skips  so when I went on to KH2 I skipped alot of cutscenes. BUt games like MGS where alot of it is cutscenes I didn't skip any. That is probably because those cutescenes were gripping to me and I didn't want to miss any of the story. The majority of cutscenes in KH2 I didn't really find gripping at all mostly because the story in KH isn't really that important to me.

I don't skip if I see them for the first time in a game, I really enjoy the scenes, or want to see the story regardless of the option.

[Ceriraye 485]

I never skip them.

Unless a repeating boss fight.

[Xiro 3,468]

I never skip cutscenes on my first playthrough. If I've already seen it oh so many times, then yes, I'll skip it. 

 

Only when I've lost to a boss and keep resetting

Or if this happens ^

[Zola 3,038]

Only when the stupid boss keeps kicking my butt and I'm sick of the battle intro.

[Sora96 17,256]

God no.

[Meow Wow 11]

I don't skip unless I've already played it once.

[Shulk 8,623]

I rarely skip cutscenes, it's only when I keep losing to a boss and don't want to watch a cutscene fifty billion times. Of course, there's always the unskippable ones...

[Nick Sideris 1,551]

Nah , I usually don't .

[Caity 3,946]

I watch the cutscenes on my first playthrough of any game, if I haven't played it in a while and play it again I would, I only really skip when it's a compulsory scene before a boss fight I lost and need to redo, or if I'm doing a speedthrough 

[Philip Ellwell 5,487]

Only cutscenes I can remember skipping are the ones in the Wii version of Silent Hill: Shattered Memories.

Gameplay's ok, but the cutscenes get preachy and overlong.

[KHUndertaleFan25 2,858]

Never have, never will.

[Orchestrafanboy19 101]

You don't fast-forward through a movie you've never seen before, right?

[ScarletArisa 128]

It is really rare but i can happen, not in the first playtrough of course but let's say...if i lose against a boss several times i would skip the cutscene before or when i am recording to save some time in the video (also just when i lose against a boss several times but it only happened one time actually). However usually I don't like skipping any cutscenes.

[LeYenrz 276]

i skip. only if i've seen it millions of times

[J. Severe 1,137]

On my first playthrough, never. Sometimes during subsequent playthroughs though.

[DaxtotheMax 193]

Only if I already played it or I watched the same cutscene before because I forgot to save
