Why are we wimps?

The beginning I can see us being weak to establish the key npc's of the game and then are role in the story plot. Then as we start making a name for ourselves it should have cut scenes with us as the ones kicking some butt. Depending on what class/job each cut scene should be taliored to it. I don't want to see a mage type using it stave to kill an enemy it should be a spell, one handed weapons type taking out a group of enemy's and sword and sheild either a sheild bash something in that regard make class/job diverse and epic feel to it. One thing I'd like to see as you progress threw grand campain rank is npc's salute you /emote of some type and praise you maybe even a present as you go by them like in /echo or something were only you see it or everyone see it open to debate on that.

One thing about cut scenes in MMOs in general

they leave the exciting "ass kicking" to your actual game play, not to the cut scenes, the cut scenes are usualy the bad guys setting up, and giving you a reason to want to beat them down, and so on


I mean, I dont wanna see myself beating up a bad guy in a cut scene, i wanna do that in game(and thats usualy why they do them as such)

I always chalked it up to a difference in cultures and a slight respect to role playing.

Western developers take no issue with creating a cutscene where your character goes all Kratos on someone for not watching where they're going and rips their head off. Then proceeds to shove said head into the unmentionables of a chimera. Then sets said chimera on fire. Then puts the fire out with ones own excrement.

Japanese developers, however, seem to take a mire polite route to what they put your character through, as they don't want to seem presumptuous about what kind if person your character is.
