Party Rushing as I Watch Cutscenes

[Freyar]

It sucks, but.. I'd rather watch the cutscenes myself.

Watch cut scenes in the inn is retarded. There's nothing you can do. There's so many gimme gimme players out there that forget that there is real art and story to be had here. Watch them in the inn? While you're at it, get yourself a leveling bot....

I had to make a Party Finder party for the dungeons because of this. I recommend you do the same, and set No Cutscene Skipping, even if you've already done the dungeons. For an added bonus challenge, turn on "Minimum IL" option as well and make sure to put that in your party finder recruitment. Ask people in your FC to join and help as well and you should have some fun.

I'd just watch the cutscenes. If people are that impatient then forget them. More people are nice than are not, but you could also run them with some FC mates. All of my FC peeps are awesome.

In short, if you want to watch the cutscenes AND participate in every encounter you will need to find either a 1) all new group or 2) a group of your friend's willing to be patient with you. There really is no middle ground here. This is why in subsequent patches and in Heavenward there are no more of these 8man story dungeons. They reduced them down to 4 people for multiple reasons and this is the largest.

As for the encounters... you will more than likely do these dungeons at least a few times based solely on the fact that they are decent sources of xp on their daily roulette. So choose to either watch the cutscenes and miss a couple of encounters (normally even the CS watchers will catch up for the final 2 bosses) or skip them and watch them in the inn at a later time.

I was fairly upset about this too.. I was told to watch cutscenes later, which I watched the first cutscene and was locked out of the first boss, so I skipped the others, hoping to fill it all in at the inn later. Only to find that the stuff i skipped wasnt at the inn...

Everything is at the inn the problem is that it's not in the quest but in the duty list of the cutscenes.

And I have ran these with FC and others to wait with the cutscenes for people - to experience it all. Because frankly if you do skip them you lose the meaning of the dungeons. But I've also timed them a few times and CM isn't that much of a prob. It's like 5 minutes of cutscenes - nobody should have a problem with that. The problem comes in Prae which has about 30 minutes of cutscenes. So to experience it the best is get FC or use the PF to get people that can spend the time helping you out. Most people you get in DF at this point in time are there for the quick exp and have probably ran these for the billionth time.

Orl, I had the exact same issue when I got to the end of 2.0 A Realm Reborn. Ppl told me to watch it at the inn. I ended up watching it there and missed 90% of the fighting. It sucked, but I didn't want to miss the story and skip the cut scenes.

After reading this, I know that when I reach higher level I will watch all cutscenes the first time through a dungeon. If people want to kill stuff without me, then great! I fell in love with this game because of the storylines.

I watch them generally. If there is a CS i haven't seen then I just tell them i'm gonna watch these because they are new to me. Ive never gotten more then a git gud noob comment. Which im ok with.
