Because it's hard to program such things in a way that plays fun alongside looking cool. The closest you can really get are things like Bayonetta or Metal Gear Rising, and those are still forced to put extremely cool things in QTEs (If you're lucky) or cutscenes.
Eli Miller
What is Metal Gear Rising? Anyway, because developers are lazy and/or have no money. Smaller teams might be more passionate and want to do something unique and fun, but don't have the budget, whereas bigger teams working for huge publishers have the pressure of getting a decent return on investment, and trust their skill in marketing, I.E. baiting, than they do in developing something new that you've never seen/played before.
It's easier to make a movie than program a game, or rather digital artists have more experience.
Justin Bell
I'd rather see things I can actually do and have them done in interesting ways rather than seeing bullshit in cutscenes though.
still full of it, except they put them into QTEs instead

>still full of it, except they put them into QTEs instead I know, I hated that game for it. Nothing made me saltier than watching Raiden during the prologue chasing after the train, and then playing the game.
I mean I might have ignored it if the level design wasn't so fucking nonexistent and the game wasn't a complete 180 from Kojimbo's reveal, but what are you gonna do? One-hit-wonder team on no budget, I blame myself for expecting anything more. Thanks, Konami.
I hope Dragon's Dogma II, if it ever exists, lets you do whacky shit if you play as the Dex classes. Using the Sprint skill or whatever and double jumping was already funner than any Sonic game in recent history, now just needs more platformin.

dude just play saints row 3 or 4, you can straight up run into a person and press the unarmed attack button as you do, and you get to pull off what you're craving

Brody Myers
Literally every single cutscene in the Devil May Cry series
Not him but yes, you can. In the cutscenes they show almost exclusively moves/abilities that you can do in the game. Not all the moves that you can do are written in the movelist.
Logan Phillips
How do you surf on people in a circle or use enemies as weapons or throw them and break arches?
Michael Fisher
You can surf on enemies in DMC3 and you throw enemies by using neros arm. He did say 90%, doesn't mean every single move is doable. If you can only name 2 then its not even worth arguing about
Wyatt Wilson
Worst offenders are the ones using in-game engine cutscenes.
Aiden Peterson
>your character is just as capable in-game as in-cutscene
Isaac Fisher
talking about dmc4
Carter Clark
>literally every single cutscene in the devil may cry series yeah sure, if you're fucking bad
Bentley Reed
You could do all of that in pic related. If only the game was beyond boring in between story missions.

The new halo games do this all the time. They have Spartans doing fucking summersaults and shit.
