Request: Please add Alliance Raid unskippable cutscenes

[Bourne_Endeavor]

Do you aim to kill Alliance raids before they even launch? MSQ can at least be a good leveling source and is intended to only be ran once per day. The 24-mans give nothing exception Creation and gear which Pagos will likely render obsolete. I guarantee you if they took this approach, no one would touch the new raid after a couple weeks, especially since the expectation is you'll run it multiple times. Good luck convincing anyone to watch the same cut scenes 20+ times per week.

Honestly they should have done that with the main scenario dungeons, but SE decided everyone should suffer through every cutscene instead...

If they had done so, people would kick the newbie.

And things like that are why ppl deserve these changes xD

Or maybe putting cutscenes in the middle of a duty in an MMO is stupid and they need to stop doing it. If they're so hell-bent on giving us those tiny scenes that don't even matter within the run itself, they can put it in a flashback later on. People who skip scenes will skip it either way, and the people who care won't be that much worse for wear for the change. They might even be better because now they'll make it into the last boss...

You do realize those people will simply not queue at all, among many others, yes? They couldn't care less about these changes nor are they impacted whatsoever.

What cutscenes are even in the alliance raids? I can't for the life of me think of anything besides introductory "This guy exists" type cutscenes.

That's it. There's the one on entrance, which you already have to wait for because the barrier won't go down until everyone's finished, and the one before the last boss, which doesn't tend to be very long.

That's why people comparing this to MSQ roulette are so off base. There's no more cutscenes in Alliance Roulette than in levelling roulette.
