I can agree with having to go through the same dialogue over again that you want to skip it I do it too. If I'm doing a quest or something that I already know about I'll skip it because I already know what's going to happen. Though I'll say the actual length of the msq can at small points get boring but I guess the length itself never is really bothered me personally. My whole premise was if the OP doesn't like a lot of the things mentioned in their post then they should go check out World of Warcraft as a lot of the stuff she described is like how that game is and I assume other MMO's out there as well
