Let's face it, the people who actually care about "muh immersion" and wish to watch all cutscenes while having the whole party wait for them are a fringe minority right now.

Yes, I say right now because the game has moved on.

Where there used to be a large pool of players who wished to do Storyline missions (CM + Prae) for the storyline, are now replaced with players who are doing it for the roulette bonuses.

Anyway with the introduction of pre-made full party roulettes, I already foresee even longer waiting times for new players who want to clear those missions.

Sooner or later, playing the game fresh as a DPS will become less and less viable due to there being a lack of players to pull from to create a full party for them to run dungeons to begin with.

So after facing hours and hours in the queue you think these new players will still complain about being forced to skip cutscenes? I think not. It's either skip cutscenes or go back to waiting if you're unlucky enough to get kicked.

Sure you can report them for kicking you but end of the day the biggest loser is still the new player as he/she is now stuck waiting in queue for hours again.

Now the luckier people who choose to go tanks/heals for their first classes would face less of such problems but at the end of the day, I doubt people expect everyone to start the game off as a tank or healer right? If that were the case, there'd be no issues such as "long DPS queues" in the first place. Then there's people who can't/won't ever want to play tanks or healers. What about them then?

So yes, roulettes are there to help new players. But not in the way most people miscontrued it. Roulettes were originally added to ease up long queuetimes on older dungeons. If you get a group that's willing to be helpful and will wait for you to watch cutscenes, congratulations you just won the ffxiv DF lottery.

I say the devs should come up with a poll for new players when they reach level 50 before they unlock CM and Prae with the question:
"Would you rather wait longer for uninterrupted cutscene viewing?"

and see the results.

Pretty sure most players just want to get those dungeons out of the way and progress further in the storyline than sit on their asses waiting for a dungeon to pop.
