    I'm not trolling, you are playing Final Fantasy, read the story! Back in 3.0 when I was helping some friends with the lv 60 dungeon and even praetorium or castrum I was queing as tanker to prevent cutscene skipping from others. Because I wanted to be sure they could experience all the story.
    But it's not really a problem outside of these two. They learned from their mistake pretty quickly and new things like that are broken up. The big cutscenes for Thoradin are *between* Aetherochemical Research Center's last boss and Singularity Reactor's first, so people can watch them without making anyone else wait very long.

    It's part of the story of the game. I think it's the right thing people wait for people who want read the story.

    It might be right but the vast bulk of the player base don't want to spend the time doing it so the MSQ roulette will just die and the queues will go up

    Problem is, MSQ CS are long and boring (to many in one dungeon) and the people who have already seen it don't wanna keep seeing it. SE just shot themselves in the foot with this one. New players are going to have an even harder time finding a group. Their only best bet is to have FC/linkshell members help them.

    The 30th time you see it, it's not part of the story. It's just making you wait and get annoyed.

    There's better solutions for these two dungeons. This is not one of them. The main effect of this is going to be to jack queue times way up unless the rewards are buffed massively.
