Speed-running cut-scene skippers...

[Amyas]

I play for the experience, the gameplay, if the game is giving me the choice to watch cutscenes at the comfort of an inn room, alone, with no interruptions, I rather watch them there, than make people wait for me. It's called being a mature adult, not a CM baby.

If we didn't have the choice to see cutscenes later on then by all means watch the cutscenes.

That's fine if you want to play like that, but for most it creates a disjointed experience. Imagine playing every other FF without cut scenes, doing every boss fight without dialogue or anything, then going back and watching the scenes on a vhs or whatever. Its just not the same.

Like I said, that's fine that you want to watch em in privacy, but if you abuse/troll/harass/mpk other players for wanting to watch them...

We're not playing other ff games, we're playing an online game with people who have lives, jobs, etc.

If you want to play solo you play a solo game, just understand that every choice you make in this game doesn't affect you alone. Knowing that I think it won't kill you to skip cs's, but that's out of everyone's control.

Yes, you play with other people. Other people that may actually want to watch the cut scenes. If you want everyone to play the game how you want to, why not go play a single player game? We are not your npc party members. If you don't want to play with people watching cs, drop the party, or drop the game and go play a single player game.

Now I just want to go in CM as a tank, bring a tank and healer friend and just do nothing but watch cutscenes. And if anyone gets a mouth on em I may develop a 'reading disorder'... suddenly.

When you sign on to DF, you agree to take what you get. Don't want to get hooked up with first timers who want to watch cutscenes? Then take some control, and organize a group of your own. Can't do that, or don't want to? Then stop bitching that the lazy way out doesn't give you exactly what you want every time.

There's nothing wrong in asking newbies to skip the cutscenes, unless it be conducted in a blatantly derogatory manner (which in itself is reportable). If that doesn't work, then the other party members should /sit and wait for them, seeing as they should've been well aware in the first place of the risks in using DF to fill a party.
