Any game dev who goes down the FMV road, in some ways, deserves the negative backlash they get because expectations of television show storytelling are WAY higher than video game storytelling. Case in point, Quantum Break. It was passible storytelling for a video game, but HORRIBLE for a television show. The FMV cutscenes wouldn't hack it on the SyFy network. I feel like game devs are trying to use it as a misguided stepping stone to a TV career.

Making a heavily dialogue focused game.... with no sound... was a very strange choice. If you know your audience isn't going to hear anything.... why have 5+ minute dialogue scenes where nothing happens? That is a VERY strange thing to do.
