Does it have cinematic value?
It is lazy game design, if you look at Halo 4 and other games with "final bosses", western devs can't make final bosses for shit.
I think it's funny how the final scene/boss fight in Halo 4 was basically just a QTE.

There was no way John could ever have beat tge Didact, even after taking six conposers and the gravity well of a gas giant to the face he's been merely "contained". What is a crappy ballistic weapin going to do to a warrior with the capability to blow up continents on his own? Not fucking much.

It should have just been a cutscene instead of a lame ass QTE "boss" fight.
Technically, couldn't guitar hero and rock band be considered games that are centered completely around quick time events?

It should have just been a cutscene instead of a lame ass QTE "boss" fight.They did it because having gameplay wouldn't accurately reflect the Didact's power and a lot of people would want some semblence of gameplay rather than a cutscene. They chose a compromise.I'm not saying it was succesful - I would prefer a cutscene - but they made the decision to balance gameplay and story.
the one true God is Doctor Doom and we should all be worshiping him.
some semblence of gameplay
