There's definitely a tendency to just slot in a cut scene with narrative stuff while you're in the middle of a mission which, once in a while is okay, but it has to be at least as immediate as the mission you're executing currently - this is something HW1 and 2 did on occasion, but they did it well, mostly. HW3's cut scenes come in at odd junctures, and this is exacerbated by the tonal mismatch between the personal stakes of the story and the scale of what Homeworld usually is about, which is the trials and tribulations of an entire people. It's bemusing to me, but the game itself isn't half bad so far.
