The preatorium, streamlined

[RitsukoSonoda]

And you really think that was a good experience for a new player? These duties are story first and fights second. The idea of "watching the cutscenes later" is so absurd when the cutscenes are the whole point of the place, even more so now that the bosses fall over. Seriously, Ultima weapon getting killed before the song even kicks in is so silly. Might as well tell them to youtube it while you are at it.

As someone that came back recently i for one was happily surprised they changed it (maybe they should somehow block the rushing to the teleporters as well) since people can actually see the story without the need to feeling having to skip for others cause you want your mad rush rush xp.

And so you feel you are more important than 7 other people in the duty that everyone else should be obligated to wait around for you specifically when ever you want to do something? That's the entirety of your argument there. The original method gave the new players a choice that had no impact on the other people in the duty. The current implementation gives no one a choice at all. The only reason this even became an issue in the first place was because of that "world revolves around me" attitude you're waving around there.

You don't have to do the roulette. It exists specifically to help new players.

It is literally this reason why they made the cutscenes unskippable.

And it seems you have a "world revolves around me" attitude when it comes to the MSQ roulette. You can not do it and get the same EXP and tomes as you would doing something else (more probably) than you would if they made the cutscenes skippable again.

I sure hope you skip cutscenes in new expansion content so you aren't inconveniencing 7 other players.

The roulette is there to help new players with huge rewards as bait, NOT the other way around where you get a roulette with massive rewards and new players "happen to be there".
If you don't want to help new players, don't do the roulette.
This has nothing to do with "the world revolving around me" so keep that attitude in check, it is the goal of the very thing you are queuing for.

That's exactly the dev's intention, yes.

People were too impatient to wait for new people to have their complete experience, so the devs force-mandated it. The dev's actions clearly show their intentions sided with the new players having their complete experience, and that their experience supersedes yours, as they could have simply ignored it like the countless other topics and issues people complain and bring up all the time. You're there for the sprout's sake, not the other way around, remember that. If you don't like it, don't queue.
