    Will you be mad if we slow you down?

    I did CM for the first time last night as part of my storyline quest and I didn't realize it was a sped-run dungeon. I pretty much missed the whole storyline cutscenses just trying to keep up with the group. I think I was the only one that was new.

    So would you be mad (those who are doing speed runs) if a new person comes in and says hey I'm new to this and would like to watch the cutscenses? I ask because on my next run, I'm going to ask if I can watch the cutscene because I missed it my first time around. I'm sure most have that are doing the speed runs have seen the cutscense at one point.

    People are going to rage at you. They shouldn't, but they're going to. They'll probably even call you "selfish" for "holding up the group." I suggest making a group on your server if you want to watch cutscenes. Also, in case you didn't know, you can view all the cutscenes from dungeons in the Duty section of the book in your Inn room~

    You should watch them in instance anyway, its your right to, no need to skip. If they were going for speed runs, then they need to make a group that speedruns everyday or spam mor like everyone else does. Using df knowing new people may join it (the game launched not too long ago) and bitching is dumb.

    You're of the mentality that is most agreeable in this game... or any MMORPG for that matter. I applaud you. Not just for the fact that you're willing to cancel cutscenes, but moreso for what appears to be like you'd be willing to let others view them during the dungeons (if that were to come up).

    I've seen ppl shouting "CM for story, not for speed etc etc" i'm sure you could find 8ppl who want storymode CM.

    IMO not the same immersion as watching in your INN vs during the instanced dungeon.

    had some speed runs where 1 or 2 people were new, watched cut scenes, didnt care. just watched for them to be out to say "take the chute" or "use return". i'm not the type to think "omg, you owe me back those 10 minutes of my precious play time!!!"

    I say just watch them anyways. It's not like they can do anything more than cry about how they didn't join a premade instead of using the duty finder.

    Normally if you do it in the duty finder, it's not a big issue. I think the cutscenes are much better experienced as part of the content they're for. Fark them if they don't want you to watch it. If you want to, do it. Let them skip it. Worst thing that can happens is they'll wipe because they're too impatient to let you enjoy the game, and the best thing that can happen is they kill the boss while you're in the cutscene and you don't have to do a darn thing.

    Nobody can stop you from watching cutscenes.

    Its your game so if you want to watch the cut scenes watch the cut scenes if they rage on you... Then float with them till the end of the dungeon and go AFK and let them deal with the end boss... People need to learn respect and if they want to run fast thru the dungeon then they can party up with thier FC's... Finding people who want to run story is alot harder than finding people who want to run speed runs... I'm a healer so let people rage on me cause i wont heal a thing... Sometimes its better to take a stand then to lay down and get trampled
