DEVS - Please allow cutscenes to not even be loaded/auto-skipped

My thoughts on dungeon cut scenes:

I don't care if people watch them, nor do I care if it takes someone 30sec to load or close one or whatever.

However, I would like a "skip all" for myself because I don't feel like doing it manually every time. ♥

You're still skipping the cutscenes, thus it is a speedrun. You are still blasting through the trash mobs at a very high rate, thus it is a speedrun. If people cannot wait an extra 15-30 seconds then the issue lies with them, not the game.

A separate DF listing for these instances without the cutscenes loaded in could potentially negate a lot of these speedrun elitism, but that comes with its own problems.

I really hate the loadings for cutscenes of dungeons I've already went (and won, because I might not clear it on the first time).

And I really hate airship loadings..
Purchase ticket > loading > Enter in area > enter airship > loading > cutscene > loading > cutscene arriving > loading > enter in area - exit area > loading > arrived destination.

I really prefer to pay 500 gil for teleport than paying 200 for airship and taking hours to arrive at destination bc of loadings.

I agree, I've had to shout that I'm looking for CM runs (while everyone is running Prae) and it's kinda awkward. But, it's even more awkward when someone invites you to Prae instead and you have to tell them that you can't run it because you're a PS3 user. ._.

+1

A auto-skip option sounds amazing.

PS: Those shouts are seriously ridiculously funny. "PC ONLY KAYTHXBAI".

Please SE, add this function...

The cutscenes shouldn't even play if you have seen/skipped them before. They are lame anyways.

I think level the playing field and make it so you can't skip if one person is on there 1st time threw. Other wise auto skip.

We don't need anymore reasons for PS3 hate. we still have idiots thinking PS3 players "bring them down" unless waiting a few extra seconds is somehow very painful. There is no reason to exclude PS3 players for any reason unless you simply think you are better then people.

Either you're pulling numbers out of your ass or you've got some magical PS3 that no one else has. The load times on PS3 are retarded and add about a 2 minute overhead in Prae runs.

This. People who aren't on PS3 don't know the pain we go through. It's annoying as all hell and needs a simple fix. Otherwise, we get alienated - however little it may be.
