Party Rushing as I Watch Cutscenes

Most people aren't that bad. If you try and ask them nicely at the start of the dungeon, explaining you're new and you'd like to watch the cutscenes, most groups will wait for you. Unless they're all complete jerks.

I have yet to hear of someone being lucky enough to have a large enough majority of nice people to actually force the rest of the group to wait. Every report I have heard is you are getting thrown to the wolves. There may be a couple nice people but the content is so easy to clear that the impatient people don't need them either. It sucks. You can either not participate in fights and just watch all the cut scenes from your starting position as everything dies without you, or you can skip the cut scenes and watch at the inn. It sucks, but SE learned their lesson and designed later dungeons differently so this is the only time you will have this problem.

The only way you will get to watch cut scenes is if you find some nice people to go in with you. If you have a FC, try asking them. If you aren't in an FC, this may be a good time to find one. With the new undersized party rules, 3-5 level 60 people could go in with you and clear, so you don't have to get 7 more people like you used to.

The level 60 dungeon (or was it the trial?) has a not-so-short cutscene in the middle of the fight.
I wish SE hadn't done it that way. I was fortunate to have a second player doing it for the first time as well so it wasn't a big deal to watch it. The content still being new to many helps but I wish they would tell the story differently.

For the most part, they have made it so cutscenes happen after you leave the instance. But, I guess they couldn't do all the narrative they wanted for that one. Still far, far less than the old 8 man story dungeons.
