Within this dynamic - a dynamic that SE has fostered ever since ARR - the length of these dungeons is a significant problem. Speaking personally, I also find the cutscenes very irritating after the third or fourth time.
I'm in the same boat as Baingoleth in that I still enjoy running both Praetorium and CM with all the cutscenes. I've run CM hundreds of times when I was farming darklight gear back at 2.0 launch and still enjoy watching the scenes every time. The more relaxed atmosphere and people joking around is one of the other reasons I enjoy doing MSQ on an almost daily basis now.

I don't find speed running fun and honestly don't understand the mentality behind always having to do it, I'm more than capable of keeping with speed runs, I just don't enjoy it. I play this game to relax and unwind after a long day, I want to take the time to enjoy the game... not rush through everything as fast as possible so I can log off earlier.
