And when people progress too fast, simply queue the cutscenes together and make the newbie watch a movie, while the rest rushes through.

    Not doing the MQS Roulette isn't an option for many, since it easily provides you 50% of a level and during the level phases (especially after a AddOn release) this would take WAY longer in any other way you could attempt to achieve it.

    What I usually do is get something to eat while doing the MQS Roulette, stop eating inbetween the cutscenes and usually, the cutscenes are long enough to finish your meal. alternatively, youtube.
    You clearly wasn't around before the mandatory cutscene was a thing, because thats EXACTLY how it was, and it was horrible. As i said above, i had no effin clue where to go if i skipped a scene, and if i watched any i was horribly left behind until the skip ahead tp popped up. All that coupled with people bitching about you watching a scene and no one telling you where to go was the worst experience.

    Main MSQ was not made for higher lvls to do lower end content, it was made to help new players get through content that otherwise higher lvled players would ignore, thats why you get a exp bonus for doing those. Forceing people to just skip and " you can watch cutscenes on your own time" mentality is selfish considering you should be joining it with the idea you are helping lower lvls to get caught up with the incentive that you are getting exp/tomes.
