I feel like if companies are making movies and marketing them as games in the first place, the fault rests on them. If you don't have any gameplay, you aren't a video game. If your entire experience boils down to watching cutscenes with no real choices or input required from the player, then you deserve whatever negatives come from marketing your product as a video game and Lets Play videos ruining your story might just be one of them.
Some of you guys are quick to compare these to movies, but they're games. Would you say I can't live stream my poker game, monopoly, or uno? Of course not. Developers make the decision of how far they want to stretch the term "game", but if they sell you something as a game it should have the same rules as other games. If they want it treated like a movie they should release a movie.
