Sorry to hear that OP. I also wanted to watch all the scenes as I leveled, but I skipped through the cut-scenes as well. I actually wait for people and don't mind if they want to watch them. I got to experience them when I made a 2nd character though; I told the group I knew I would be left behind but I wanted to see the scenes unfold. They surprised me and stuck with me the entire time. But I also understand the people who want to speed run them because they run them so much.
