It's about being immersed in a story. It's a story about space with frankly very little space in it. Seeing the spaceship land gives the illusion that you flew somewhere. Without the custscenes you click a location and suddenly appear there. Hell, why bother with a map, just have a fast travel on the mission and select it to warp to your target. Having the cutscene is the same reason NPC's have backstories and talk a lot, why waste precious seconds on someone telling a story when they can just give us the bullet points so we can go and get the job done? Because it's fun, immersive. Some, like yourself just want the real meat of the game, the shooting, the important story and not to waste time in between. There should be an option for you to skip these scenes, but to turn it off for everyone is a mistake. I and a lot of other people want the whole experience, I spent 3 hours building a large ship, I'd like to see it takeoff and land. Couldn't have said it better. I really hope this either gets a mod or the dev implements it themselves as an optional parameter.
