    Well, I've never "forced" anybody to skip a cut scene.. In fact, I've never even run past and left people behind.. I've actually never run dungeons with people who thought it was acceptable to just make everybody else wait 5 minutes while you sit back and watch a movie. Sure, a new person may watch the entrance cut scene for maybe a minute or two, but if it drags on any longer, they usually say something so that we know what's going on. Usually, they don't make us wait for the entire duration though. But I've never ran a dungeon with somebody who'll sit through the whole thing without feeling like they're dragging everybody else down.

    I HAVE run a few dungeons where the entire party was waiting for the cut scenes and that was helping out FC mates, friends, or PF groups.. Never in a DF.


    But since you asked about what some people who don't care about cut scenes would do, this is me.

    I've never watched any cut scene in the game in its entirety.
    I'll be skipping past the ones in Heavensward as well. If I'm that interested, yes I can see it later in the Inn but chances are, I won't be that intrigued anyway.
    If later on, I do have my interest piqued or have questions about the lore, I usually just watch the cutscene compilations on youtube or I read about the story to get the full in-depth story.

    Call me uncouth, uncultured, unable to enjoy a good story, whatever you want. But one thing different from me and the people who DEMAND their group all slow down so they can enjoy the cut scene is.. I will not be a disservice to other people simply for my own viewing pleasure.

    I kinda get what he's saying. I'm a newbie Conjurer (and being a healer makes it even more noticeable), and most of times I go into dungeons or Guildhests, "pro"-tankers begin pulling before I can cast protect, keep telling me to skip the cinematic, "pro"-archers and lancers start "tanking" because they think the newbie tank is too slow, black mages start casting only the Fire spell because they're too tired of doing the same dungeon for the hundredth time and so on.

    What's the point on doing that? I'm not on some e-sports league, I WANNA HAVE FUN! Do you want to play with pros? Search your party outside of duty-finder, but if you're using it, please, at least RESPECT the ones who are starting with the game. Don't rush them, don't make fun of them if they made a mistake, don't let them behind just because you think they're slow.
