Yeah who needs context and establishing shots honestly, it's not like they enhance the experience in any way by giving us an immediate understanding of the characters and situation thus enhancing the entertainment value of the following scenes or segments.
Why do games even have cutscenes in the first place? Just give us some book or something and put the story there, who cares about things like cinematography, voice acting, soundtracks...

I'm sure the audience doesn't need to know why Argath from Final Fantasy Tactics is suddenly a huge tentacle monster, or where the hell
