    Thank you so much, I didn't know that you could re-watch the cut scenes, nobody's actually mentioned it before, you're the first person to give me hints/advice on this game.

    To be fair, you never ASKED for any hints or advice.. You just complained about people leaving you behind because they didn't want to sit around and wait for you to finish watching cut scenes.. Do you remember how long your cues were for Castrum and Pratorium? I can't imagine being a very shorts one especially as a DPS.. Now, you figure about 6 or 7 of the people you ran it with were people you claim you would like NOT to run that content with.. So applying a very simple linear Mathematics, you can at least expect your queue time to quadruple from that.. Likely more because you'll have to wait on that one healer or tank.. That kind of already exists in guildhests.. So be careful what you wish for. Unless you want to wait in queue for 3 hours, the way it is set up right now is the best you can get out of it.


    Also, if it bothers you that much, get your own group together, you're not putting in any extra effort to do that. FCs will usually help their member go through those dungeons and wait around for you to watch the cutscenes.. But you're expect that from just random strangers who join expecting a 20 minute run to extend it to a 40 minute run just for you? 7 other people? I believe that is pretty close to dictionary definition of selfish as you can get..

    If this is the first time you've ever gotten an advice in the game so far, maybe you need to realize this is an MMORPG, social aspects are quite heavy in these kinds of games, join a good FC, find yourself a home and get a close knit group of friends together. You'll enjoy the game more.


    As far as watching the cuts scenes later in the Inn goes, I know some people that would be bothered by that greatly and wouldn't consider it to be the same experience.. I don't understand it, but hey, once my friend gets to level 50 and he's ready to start doing those dungeons, I'll have my group of friends ready for the full run with time to watch cut scenes in between. It's no big deal if we can get a premeditated effort going with a full party.. But to expect that from a Duty finder group?? Unless you're really lucky and run into a pre-made FC party and they happen to be nice enough, you won't have that kind of luxury. Unfortunately, it's a design flaw and the work around is not optimal.. But without it, you wouldn't be able to get through the main story either.

    Think about the one content that don't have the added incentive to go back (Battle of the Big Bridge, Gilgamesh fight before Gold Saucer)
    It took me 5 days to do it because I kept queueing at 2am and it wouldn't pop until 5am so I would just go to sleep.. So one day I just stayed up til 7 in the morning and that's when I was able to get in..

    OP is asking for that same thing to happen with Castrum and Praetorium..
