I noticed how useless our characters look ever since the last cutscene of Syrcus Tower. It's probably too complicated to animate and code the broad spectrum of each individual character, especially for your character to be on the offensive. At best, we should at least be shown to be on the defense without the use of our weapon. The best we got in which we are portrayed as useful is defending an NPC in the job quest cutscenes, where we are actually doing something in direct relation to the job quest we are participating in. I guess putting all possibilities plus replaying the different possibilities in the inn room, along with what the character is wearing, I guess adds up, and this is coming from someone who wanted a variety of personalities within different genders and races (eg. female Hyur with female Elezen mannerisms; I'm tired of the "teehee I'm so QTazngurl" attitude and want a refined and mature personality for my Hyur) and specialized cutscenes, similar to what the OP is looking for.
