Please Reconsider MSQ Changes

meaning that the time you will lose is only an insignificant fraction of your playtime. In fact, I'm pretty sure you already lost more time to lag in all your playtime than you will by not being able to skip the cutscenes.

I bet you are wondering why I said your consistently throwing out stawmans when you make statements like this? Do you even understand why people are here telling SE to take this change out of the game?

Considering that more than half of this topic has been written before even knowing how this roulette would roll, a good portion spread misinformation on the value of the reward versus the time, and another good portion think it clever to make those solo duties just because they don't want to run the roulette, preventing people who like that roulette to experience it (because reasons, I guess), most people here complain without having experienced any real issue yet.

Cool, so is this you admitting you do not know why people are complaining then? because yet again (not shocked) this is you throwing out stawmans

It does still matter. You do not get change to happen by running away. I love this game and I want it to do well. You are right, I won't stop playing. But I will be heard, and I will keep giving my feedback and you'll have to deal with it.

Regardless of how many hours I've put into this game, I still should be able to experience those quests at MY pace when I come to them.

I like leveling. It helps me learn my jobs from the bottom up. I do it to become a better player and because I enjoy playing this game. Sometimes I wanna just got dance for some sylphs again ok?

The MSQ gives you gear along the way. Poetics are still useless on those characters, by the time I get through the MSQ, I have enough gil to just buy gear, why waste time getting the poetics gear what will be replaced in no time, when I can throw gil at it. Heck THERE ARE OTHER WAYS to get poetics MUCH faster.

But nice try there. Cute.

I should not have to sit in Prae or CM for an hour + and I should not have to pay money to get past it either.

Everyone deserves a choice what they want to do. This change is very bad and should be clear how bad it is when it auto scrolls (once again you can't slow it down and go an YOUR PACE!) when you unsync.

You're either really not getting it or you don't want to get it at this point. This change affects not just the roulette but a hypothetical premade of 8 people, or an unsynced party, who don't care for the cutscenes and are running it for the first time on those charas if not at all. People who don't want that roulette anymore won't run it, but they'd still have to go through that broken content if they take an alt through that content. And as someone with several alts who have yet to clear that part of the MSQ, I'd much rather it became a solo duty instead of forcing me to sit through unscrollable, unskippable cutscenes.

Hell that's half the reason I story skip most of my alts to HW. Between the hell that was these dungeons even before the forced cutscenes and the even bigger hell that awaits from 2.1-2.55 I just didn't have much motivation to slog through that part of the story again. Now with the cutscenes being mandatory I have none at all, even for just running it as a roulette.
