People able to skip cutscenes in MSQ roullete o.o

[Nixxe]

I agree, how dare these first timers enjoy the finale of the game they paid for instead of being forced to choose between missing the cutscenes or doing the fights.

How dare these new players want to enjoy the storyline instead of enjoying the experience of speedrunning the content to farm tomestones.

How dare these people not want to enjoy the authentic and extremely climactic experience of going to an inn and watching 2 dungeons worth of cutscenes after the fact because people only want to get their tomestone reward as fast as possible and then leave without saying a word. People who play this game are completely selfless and wouldn't complain about a dungeon they voluntarily que for taking much longer with no regard to the experience of the new player, nor how upset they would be watching the final cutscenes take place as they have no idea what happened between them.

Not to mention that the sentient grizzly bear that sits in your room holding a gun to your head and forcing you to que for Main Scenario roulette doesn't care how long the dungeon takes, and will make you que for the roulette every day without fail.

That is an intense persecution complex.

It's possible to realize the experience sucks for new players without taking it out on the veteran players by making an even worse bandaid fix. I don't queue for MSQ by the way. It's a roulette that I lost because of the idiotic change they made to it. You clearly think yourself a spokesperson for new players, but I know when I was a new player I started skipping cut scenes because I felt bad for not helping. Knowing everyone is stuck watching 30 minutes of mostly useless filler each time they do it just so I could watch them in peace wouldn't feel any better. I watched every single other cut scene the first time through, but Praetorium is absurd and I just went back and watched them in the inn. When the roles were reversed and I was the veteran player, I had no issue if people watched the cut scenes. It takes like three people to clear Praetorium, so they're not hurting anything. That's the way it should have been left.

This way though? People obviously hate it. I'd be very surprised if participation rates aren't lower than they previously were, which means higher queue times for players who actually need to clear the content. If they fix people alt+f4ing out of it, those people will probably stop queuing for it as well, further driving up queue times. People who would rather new players have an ideal experience or none at all, even if the latter is an inadvertent consequence, are not friends to new players, no matter how they may see themselves.
