An alternate solution would be to decouple the MSQ from access to game content. Let people who are level 50 start the Heavensward job quests, rather than letting them become a level 60 character with no new moves since 50. Let people unlock dungeons and trials by walking up to the entrance. That way people could complete the MSQ at their own pace, and enjoy it, rather than feeling like it's a barrier to playing with their friends, and they're letting people down by not skipping all the cutscenes.
