Please Reconsider MSQ Changes

Ahh, I imagine at most this probably just changes a line or two of dialogue.. I know when I pick the "wrong" choice in quests, they normally spout off real fast about why I'm wrong, then prompts me to try again. These prompts could definitely be used to troll the other players in the Roulette, so I can see why they'd take them out.

With that said, a short timer on any prompts could have been a decent solution. However, for my own needs, I appreciate having to input absolutely nothing while I'm tabbed out waiting for the CS to pass

still would not effect you cuz it would auto in 5 sec anyway (or could have) the biggest complaint i have in regards to it, is that it is removed for the inn as well. I mean.. *throws arms it* it really shows they did not think things though. Also the comment about being alt tabbed.. meaning you are not playing the game.. isn't that a clue how bad this change is?

I'm also sad to see that the dialogue option got removed. For a new player its absence doesn't outweigh the gain of being able to watch the cutscenes, and he did launch into the exact same speech regardless of what you picked, but it's still a loss.

It does seem that their system may only be able to handle an all-or-nothing approach to cutscene playback - judging from the inn cutscenes having the same auto-scroll. There may be no way that they can implement giving players the option to skip or not skip at an instance-by-instance level, even if they wanted to.

I'm avoiding Main Scenario queues now simply because of this change. 5-10 mins of actual fighting with new players still unable to keep up to fight the bosses [...]

But.... new players don't have to keep up? That's the point of this change, they're going to be there and participating in the battles. They might not be doing the same degree of damage as veterans with better equipment, but they're in the fight from start to finish instead of still being in the cutscene, or running through empty corridors trying to find everyone.

Yeah, it's speaks wonders for the gameplay that I tab out while running MSQ roulette. But then again, you always hear people commenting how they just watch netflix while crafting / gathering / even dungeoning at times, so not all content. For better or worse, there is a lot of content that people just tab out for. MSQ is just the latest addition to that list. :X

In a perfect world, SE would have made this a solo instance. Maybe in another 4 years they'll figure out a way to make that happen -.-;
