Wow, people are real jerks about watching cutscenes.

[NefGP]

Yeah I actually missed half of the Ultima Weapon fight in Praetorium (the 2nd one) and I missed the final battle with Lahabrea entirely because my group couldn't wait while I was watching the cinematics.

So I guess I "beat" the game, but I would have liked to have actually participated in the final battle....

One person having a bad experience = "people".

And yes, i know more than one of you have experienced this, but in all my runs of CM I've not seen a single person say anything rude when a player watches a cutscene. I've seen people mention it, like "oh, they must be in a cutscene" and at the very most "I wish people would say they'll be watching cutscenes", but not a single time have I seen anyone say anything rude.

And I ran it a lot to spiritbond gear.

People like to exaggerate the negative.

I really should have taken some screenshots, but the people in this particular run were ruthless. And as I said, although my experience has been largely positive, it's not isolated to this one incident.

I haven't been flamed this badly since I played LoL. "Kill urself <racial slur>" was commonplace.

lol, threads like these really push me to get to end game already. The nerdrage for playing the game as its meant is going to make up for the monotony of running the same instance so many times.

Something tells me you won't get to run many instances outside of DF.

I watched all the cutscenes for my first time at each dungeon too.

and not all the cutscenes can be replayed in the inn, they're lying to every first timers.

I fully support anyone who wants to watch the cutscenes. They are meant to be watched and should be. However I just want to clarify, all cutscenes can be watched in the inn. ALL of them. You just have to look under the proper category. If you have found one not there please let me know so I can find it for you.

Could someone explain for example, how to watch cutscene for toto-rak, when you are running first time (with masked mage and dialogues)?

I get that you're doing it for the tomes, but it's my first time in Prae and it's the final dungeon of the game's storyline quests.

A little off topic but its been mentioned a few times, one misconception I see is that Praetorium is the end of the main storyline currently. Unfortunately it continues after that with HM primal quests and then leads into the binding coil. Theres a large chunk of this games population that isnt going to get to see how the story plays out after Praetorium for a long time.

The end credits roll after doing Prae. :P

DF is where the problem is. If speed runners would make their own groups with like minded players or at least didnt go all nerdrage every time a random DF player with random experiences and gameplay styles ...well, this thread wouldnt even exist, would it?

Under "Main Scenario Quests" select "Into the Beast's Maw" and watch the 4 cutscenes. (Slider bar to change cutscenes)
