ELI5: Why are videogame cutscenes, intros and menu scenes rendered in real time instead of using a pre-recorded video?

You might have different armour on when the cutscene happens, or if it’s a different time of day in game? It should look fairly consistent with the game as you’re playing it when you trigger the cutscene.
