SKIP CS Option PLEASE!

[Cahlum]

If you don't like cutscenes, I suggest you quit this game and go play Metal Gear Solid 4.

^ This, seriously.

what a bunch of whiners . Sounds like the only literature most of you have read outside game is "Mein Kampf" judging by the amount of fascist totalitarian hate in your posts.

How does anyone having the option to skip a cutscene effect your gameplay?
Wait wait wait, you guys aren't annoyed by people wanting a skip CS option, you're annoyed by the fact that not everyone plays this game for the lolstory.

If you want to play an RPG go play one.
There's a lot more to MMO's than the story, and last I checked there wasn't a requirement on the game's box that said
"Must watch cutscenes or gtfo"

I like FFXI for a lot of reasons. The story isn't one of them. If I want to read literature, trust me it won't be the 1st grader content this game offers.

I feel sorry for the people who actually hate on others for not being entertained by content that is probably written for a 13 year old.

Funny. I thought all Final Fantasy games sell point was the storyline in each of them.

Anyway you got a dev response clearly stating it can't be done so QQ moar.

Can't be done due to technical limitations, not due to validity of request. Dev wouldn't have even responded to thread if it wasn't an already somewhat popular request.

Also FF titles are for the most part RPG. FFXI-FFXIV are MMO's.
Not everyone who plays an MMO is in it for the story. In fact, the majority of MMO players are in it for the PvP and social interaction, something which is as far away from story mode as possible as it involves less solo gameplay and more social interaction with other players.

The only Q.Qs in this thread are the emo die hard Trish fanfagggggs saying "f u don't give other players a skip cs option cuz i want them all to suffer this drivel"

how about when you DC during a 15 minute CS?
Or when something autosorts to you during a cs, and then when you are awarded something at the end, you can't obtain it, and have to sit through the damn CS again?

there's no justification for the lack of a skip cs option. its just SE being lazy.

It's just SE trying to entertain us with a good storyline like all other RPG games does.
Corrected!

[...]Sorry

SE doesn't have to be sorry for giving us good storylines and nice cut scenes.

It's so sad to realize that you definitely failed to understand what a RPG is, or a MMORPG which is the extention of the RPG concept.

Games that emphasize plot and character interaction over game mechanics and combat sometimes prefer the name storytelling game.

Educate yourself before insulting the literature work that has been done for FFXI.

I've have a suggestion for you:
- Create a social Linkshell.
- Get your members do Ballista.

*** Call that social Linkshell "Storyline Haters" for that matter. As a matter of fact, I'm sure your LS will be as popular as Ballista.

I imagine CoP must have been a bear for folks to handle then.. (sidenote: what CS takes 30 mins+ to read???)
