I dont understand how if someone chooses to watch a cutscene for the 500th time, that the game allows them to do, and in fact makes them immune while doing it, thats any different than the first time? Sure, it might not seem reasonable or something that you or I would want to do but if someone wants to watch a cutscene again, so be it. Im reaching 2 years in this game and there are still some cut scenes I like to watch. The Nier raids come to mind, and anything involving a certain Ascian, to be honest.

Farming gwibs, you were probably in a pre-made or party finder group right? If it bothers you so much, make your own party and note that the group will not be watching cutscenes.
