    Imo it depends on how long the cutscene is.
    If it's a really long cutscene I don't really feel like waiting especially if I am already stressed for time.
    Some cutscenes really do go on for a really long time.

    Especially since it's old content, at some point I don't think that you can expect people to wait for you if you started playing so deep into an expansion.
    It's the same with spoilers too, obviously if you know that someone is watching/ playing something you shouldn't deliberately spoil it to them.
    On the other hand, some people unironically get mad if you talk about how Sauron was destroyed in LOTR or how Vader is Lukes father.
    Like you had so much time to watch the movies, you can't expect people to not talk about anything to avoid spoiling things.

    And the same way I don't think you can expect people to sit there and wait 5-10 minutes for you to watch a cutscene before you kill a boss that is already undertuned and too easy to begin with.
    Is it kind of them to do it?
    Sure.
    But I don't think that someone pulling in that case is some kind of a villain and evil incarnate.

    On the flip side of things you can also watch cutscenes after the fact and not make everyone wait for you to finish old content they've finished a billion times over for years.

    This argument could easily be made the other way around.
    If everyone else has already completed the story and you're running content from years ago then it's selfish of the person who haven't finished it yet to get mad if people don't want to wait imo.
    Just because you haven't finished the story doesn't mean that the world or everyones time revolves around you either.
