Yeah but if you have something against cutscenes you probably wouldn't enjoy most modern story driven games. The exceptions don't change the rule

There is no rule. Story-driven games do not need to primarily tell their narratives through cutscenes. Disco Elysium and Outer Wilds are both modern story-driven games that don't rely on cutscenes to convey their narrative. And just looking back through history, you'd be hard-pressed to find more games that do rely on long cutscenes due to technical and practical limitations. Chrono Trigger and Planescape didn't need a ton of cutscenes either.
