Please Reconsider MSQ Changes

[MistakeNot]

To this day I still don't understand why if a party don't have any new player cutscenes are still forced to watch. I mean, is a first-timer is there sure, force cutscenes and give a fat bonus to keep everyone happy.

That's to prevent impatient people from kicking any newbies from the party.

To stop people from "fishing" for fast roulettes by queuing for the roulette, and then leaving en masse if it's a mandatory cutscene one. Which based on prior player behavior is 100% what would happen if cutscenes were only mandatory for newbie runs.

I really love the idea of the MSQ duties with unskippable cutscenes being changed to solo runs. It wouldn't take that much tweaking, I don't think, because in every cutscene, they already talk as though you are there by yourself. There's no "You and your friends," it's just "You."

EDIT: Might also work out well with upcoming BLU, and New Story+.

Just want to remind that the best way so say some big company that some of their services is bad - is stop to supply it / stop use it.

- Stop going Main Scenario roulette at all.
- Stop buying anything from store for real money (apart from subscription / addons of course or you won't be able to play at all).

Only those steps can have some impact, not your whines on forums

Tbh id be with unskippable however there are like over 8 cs that are completely pointless that should have been removed after week 1 but i know it will never happan because this days playing a video game has to be like watching a movie

I do MSQ whenever I am leveling up another job, since it gives almost a full level of XP for a 30 minute run and doesn't take a lot of brain power to do any of the scenarios.

The queue usually pops within 5 minutes.

I don't see the issue here. The XP reward is high enough people will run the DF.

The issue is the cutscenes. Most of your time is spent watching cinematics instead of fighting. And what makes it worse is the fact that its the same cinematics every time. Who really wants to watch the exact same tv episode day after day after day?

WoWs Black Rock Depths was soooo much better. A few hours of action vs MSQs 30 to 45 minute sit and watch a rerun chopped up with brief 30 to 60 second fights.

I wish they'd stop interrupting the cutscenes with live action stuff. :P

It never felt like a problem that needed to be addressed. All it does is prevent me from playing the game which is simply unenjoyable.
