    You are trying to create separate queues for something that makes no sense to divide.

    Let me draw this out to further explain.

    You want 2 queues for CM and Praetorium, yes?

    1: Current roulette queue- anyone and everyone queueing to CM or praet gets participants who choose this.

    2: New roulette queue- Players who opt in will no longer get participants from queue 1. Only veterans who opt in to queue 2. And let's face it, forcing anything for old content upon a returning player will mean it is opt-out by default, not opt-in.

    I hope you see the issue with this. You are shooting yourself in the foot by eliminating the convenience of fast queues. If people are told there's a slight bonus but a huge time commitment? you scare them away.

    The very idea you are suggesting undermines the goals you want, you might as well have formed a party finder "no cutscene skipping" group.
    Which, incredibly, is already an option.

    /slap we have already given you a plethora of ways to get exactly what you want, now OR later. you just choose to dismiss them.

    now that's what I call compromise. heh.

    /sarcasm


    ...You can experience the cutscenes right now, with no complaints.
    You can experience the combat on flipping attempt 2 at the dungeon, that isn't never.

    ...You can experience the combat right now, with no complaints.
    You can experience the cutscenes at the inn any time after your first clear, that isn't never.

    ...You can experience the cutscenes AND combat at your own pace right now, by forming a party of 5 people who agree to this, and queueing. Because hey, you are the majority.

    /slap again.

    Just because you choose to metaphorically cover your ears each time people mention these available options, doesn't mean they don't exist.
