Anyone else struggle with getting into the stories of most games? I'm just not interested in the endless cut scenes and story telling, I don't find them at all believable or interesting, to the point where I've switched off quite a few games because of the endless break up in the game play, games like Metro etc.

The only games I seem to find myself putting up with it are the more open world games where you can choose to ignore the storyline and play for extended periods doing whatever you like rather than following a rigid path through the game.

Maybe I'm just getting too old for it all or have less time for it but it's getting more and more common.

Can anyone recommend some games that are less rigid and full of cut scenes? I liked the original Hitman games but I tried Absolution recently and just couldn't get into it, too much sitting and watching and not enough playing.
 
I quit the last Tomb Raider after an hour. Got utterly sick of the cutscenes and QTE, seemed like every 3 steps delivered a cutscene.

Oh that doesn't bode well, I have it in my steam library but haven't got around to it yet.

I don't know what is with game storylines, they just seem naff and laughable, acting is crap, voice acting is usually a joke, I just can't take them serious at all.
