    Honestly, there are even new players or individuals that level up alts through the story that do not want to see the cutscenes, but are forced into them each time—even running Castrum and Praetorium unsynced with a level 70 forces you into them. I’d rather they get rid of the Roulette and just retailer them to Squadron/Trust instances. This way, they can remove the unskippable feature; so people that want to watch can, and those who don’t want to don’t have to.

    I don’t mind them spending a bit of resources on programming NPCs to take the place of regular party members. It’s not like the MSQ Roulette is a fan favorite by any stretch—and the poetics can be easily obtained a variety of other ways.

People are still careless in doing EX primals via duty finder synced, more so being unprepared for mechanics being explained and being undergeared for them in several areas.
    Personally, I’m the opposite—while the MSQ dungeons are easy wins, I also prefer to feel engaged and those two dungeons leave me anything but. I’ve started running Mentor Roulette simply out of boredom, and as frustrating as it is to get Shiva EX with a bunch of players that don’t want to follow directions, at least I’m engaged in it.
