Trying to save some time and money for people who don't want to spend money on yet another long-ass video game. This is the internet, and there are people who will get butthurt if you tell them that Aerith gets shanked by Sephiroth and stays dead.

Because people value narratives and stories. Those experiences make them feel all sorts of emotions during the gameplay. You’re not saving anyone time or money because they didn’t get those emotions or the experience. I play games for all of that, if you can’t provide step aside.
