A Grave State Of Affairs

[odintius]

This option in telling people to watch cut scenes at the inn in not 100% accurate the only cut scene you able to view is the beginning and ending ones not the small short cut scene's after boss fights. I have checked multiple times checking to see if those particular cs and they are not in the inn at all so I can understand if someone first time doing it they want to watch those.

The only times when I really ask for people to skip is when were already short on time and those miniutes could make the diffrence between a successful and failed run (Completed Praetorium with 2 miniutes left on the clock, we would've failed if people didn't skip)

I would love to see some etiquette guidelines created for farming for mats... When farming, I focus on 2-4 spawn locations. I do this to allow other people an opportunity to also collect mats from other spawn locations. However, on several occasions I have had people call me a bot or RMT for simply farming these few mobs because either A) I know exactly where they pop (it's not like their locations move) or B) they get mad that they can't out-claim them.

If you see someone farming a specific spot, go find another location or come back later... It's like in pre-Abyssea FF11... don't camp on top of another camp... It's rude!

To the farmers who just run around willy-nilly and kill everything with AoE when there are other people trying to farm the same thing... Stop it! That's rude, too!



Why is this game filled with so many rude and inconsiderate people?

Yes they are, there's a dropdown menu where you can select the other cutscenes. Every single cutscene is in there, no matter how small it is, even the 5 second "oh noes it's the boss and he seems angry" cutscenes are in there.

*Players screaming at other players freshly turned 50 for watching the cutscenes within Castrum Meridianum and The Praetorium.

Skip them and watch them at the Inn. I did that, didnt want to burden the people that were carrying me for the first time.

No. How about let you let them watch the cut scenes the way they were intended to be viewed. If you don't like it, form your own group and stay out of duty finder

Sorry but can't resist...especially when "entitiled ****" comes out.

"I take my time very seriously"
...play MMO, and reply on a thread like this...
How serious.

Sigh...gone are the days where MMO is supposed to be full of surprise, adventure, full of unknown, excitement, awe and wonder...there ups and downs, and bittersweet moments experienced together with friends, foes and strangers alike.
And now gamer being called "some entitled ***" because not wanting to spoil actually playing a game.
I don't know why people nowadays are "playing" game like a job...it is really appalling how MMO player-base transformed since the days of UO...
I think WoW transformed the MMO landscape...making everything so theme-park like, so care-free, so easy, and fast-food-like.

I don't know...

Your statement is a very good example of how perspectives are very different from person to person. You relate the better days of MMOs with UO. While I think UO had the most toxic community to date. I actually think the birthplace of “player griefers” started with UO! I would rather be yelled at to skip cutscenes than be killed and all my stuff be looted and house taken because I angered someone. I actually think most MMO rules were formed because of the asinine antics that went on in the UO community. With that being said, I really don’t think this is anything new and I don’t think it all stems from recent world of warcraft players. I see this type of behavior from day to day in real life and from MMO to MMO I’ve played over the years. When something bad happens some people only tend to focus on that and use only similar occurrences to validate their claim.

When i queue for Duty Finder, it's to progress in where i'm currently standing in the story.

if a few impatient turds want me to skip the cut scene, telling me to watch it in the inn, making my experience with the game a bad once since i can't experience the story while in the dungeon, how it's meant to be, instead of in an inn, then i will put on my "obnoxious person that sits in the movie theater throwing popcorn at the screen while yelling NO DON'T GO IN THERE IT'S A TRAP!" act.

I pay for this game, just like you. But just cause you are impatient and don't give a rats ass about my game experience, then why should i care about yours?

I let any new person that joins my DF group watch the cut scenes, and i even explain fights while they do, so they can come back to read the information to know how to preform on the incoming fight. No need to be a douche. i get home to play the game to relax and have fun. Not sit there being told off by impatient ****s.

course i haven't reached end game yet, but, it still applies.

We ran CM last night with 2 new people and told them to enjoy the cut scenes. If you are in that big of a hurry form a party OUTSIDE the duty finder! I think all of these people are ridiculous and our free company will never give in to these elitist attitudes. The funny thing was the 2 new people were asking for our server as they have never had anyone be nice to them on their first runs.......truly pathetic.

[Seraphita]

Gadenp, I've been at endgame far longer than most of these new elitist have so that statement is incorrect and you'd see this attitude amongst the majority of Legacy players. Unfortunately, as much of a stereotype as it is, the problem is the players who've come from games like World of Warcraft are degrading the community as the whole with their attitudes. I have no problem what so ever watching a cutscene for a hundredth time as I enjoy the story but never would I take away the enjoyment of another by making demands that they skip the scenes just to speed my run up by a couple minutes.

I was afraid this would happen. WoW went to shit, and all the idiots from that game are spreading to other communities...
I quit WoW to get away from those morons....
God help us all...
