I'm trying to complete my FFXIV video project, and because of a lack of willing volunteers on Besaid I'm forced to scrounge my way through whatever cutscenes I can get my hands on. Hence why I view cutscenes as a commodity and not as something that should be "exclusivized".
First of all, I'm telling you I don't think they will be exclusive. If it's important main story quest information I don't think it would be kept from us forever. It just may take longer for everyone to see everything. However, in the scenario these are exclusive, you can't be surprised either. It's a unique experience for every player in this game. Each city state opening is different, aspects of each main storyline are slightly different depending on your starting city, and perhaps your grand company story will be slightly different than those that took a different company.

If they never link up the company cutscenes and you never see them on your character, then you can be upset. But companies are still relatively new, and we don't have much of an idea of what's going to happen there. We also don't know what's going to happen when foundation day rolls around again next year. We don't know if we'll be able to use the power of the echo to witness events later on. Just voice your concerns about it, that's fine, but I feel the need to calm you because you are acting as if this whole thing is set in stone. lol
