What you are describing is not a game, what you are describing is Mixtape

… which is a game.

This isn’t even a question of hard or easy challenge. There’s is no challenge. You can literally put the controller down and the game completes that section all on its own.

I don’t see anything wrong with a game without a challenge.

not a game at that point, it’s a movie you can’t do half of the controls you can with something on netflix

I’m not sure I agree with your definition of a game, but I am certain I can’t work out the meaning of what you have written here.
But I would argue that if there is any interactive element, you can’t say it’s a movie either. Just because one section doesn’t require player input doesn’t mean the entire thing plays itself.

so?

Movies already exist. If you’re not required to press a single button or steer at all, you’re not playing a game.

That’s a single short part of the game that was probably too imbalanced before release. Play it and we can talk again.

Most, if not all, of the quick time events are like this, too. The game gives you a huge window to press the button but it doesn’t matter if you press the right button…and you can also just not press a button at all.
It’s like scrolling a video feed of actions

It’s not about the lack of difficulty, it’s about the lack of quality and thought that has gone into making this. Large publishers are now convinced that effortless crap like this is the way to go because it will sell anyway, thus dragging down game quality in general.

The game is not crap though according to reviews. The section was probably found too difficult or clunky in playtesting. 20 years ago this would have stayed in and frustrated everyone like that race in the original Mafia.

If this was super easy mode I don’t think anyone would be complaining but this is the only difficulty if i’m not mistaken.
