(First time posting, so not sure if I did anything wrong.)
I read the definition, but I really can’t wrap my head around what it actually means.

FMV is when an actual camera’s recording is used in a video game. Games like Her Story or the X-Files game used actual footage of humans, and that’s what you see in the game.
If you’re not using FMV, you’re using graphics of some kind. It can be minimalist or extremely realistic, motion capture or literal blocks on a screen, but at it’s core it’s using the graphics code of the game as opposed to literal video.
Cutscenes in any given blockbuster title? Computer-generated graphics. Same with most anything you see in a video game. FMV is by and large an exception and a rarity.
