Please let us exit a MSQ cutscene without skipping it

[ArcanoJones]

OP is referring to quest cutscenes, not in-dungeon. Y'know. Queue up a duty and run some quests while you wait.



Major complication here is when entering those cutscenes on a different job than what you queued for. Can't enter duty until you've changed jobs. Can't change jobs until you're out of cutscene.

I realize that . But my comment was a nitpik on the fact that in dungeons you feel the need to skip cutscenes. Sorry for straying from the original subject.

Correct me if I'm mistaken, but doesn't accepting a queue in the middle of a cutscene cancel the cutscene and therefor being able to watch it from the start once back again?
I'm sure I have some faint memory if used to be like that.

Edit: See now that someone else already mentioned this.

I was on a different class. To have accepted the queue, I would have had to exit/skip the cutscene to change jobs.

While watching them at the Inn is a nice backup, as many people have said, not all of the cutscenes are avaliabe and certainly nearly none of the flavour text. Plus, this new expansions story is so fantastic I want to experience it as its happening, not at my FC house.

I never do msq when i'm in queue, that way i don't have to withdraw or lose a CS. I do other things and continue msq after my queue.

Another solution may the opposite: if queue pops up, give us all the interface (not only the df one) so we can change job and accept.

Can we also maybe have a pause button? For those times when we have to step away for a second. I have a kid like many folks do, and sometimes we just a need a sec to deal with them. Meanwhile there goes my cs playing in the background despite hitting esc and hoping it'd pause, but nope it plays away with the "skip cutscene yes/cancel" overtop.

I know this might not be the best solution, but if you don't want to go back to the Inn right after the duty to re-watch it, and you really want to see the cut scene; you could just abandon the quest and start from the beginning of it.

I know that sucks if it was a long quest or a difficult one, but there is that option too.

Yes it does, but you can’t accept the queue when you are in different class of your queuing, not switching class in middle of cut scene

Like I run MSQ with 1 job but I usually do my daily with other job, I have to either skip the cut scene and rewatch it in inn(I am not sure if I still got to choice my dialog) or I have to let the queue timer ran out

[Reinha]

I may have missed it but I didn't find a way to abandon a MS quest. The cutscene wasn't in the inn at least before turning in the quest. Had to watch it on YouTube.

[Bright-Flower]

Huh? I've had queues pop mid cutscene and I can go into the duty and restart the cutscene later because it never regisered my quest progress.

[XenociderOmega]

I've accepted ques while in a cutscene and it never skipped it just restarted it from the beginning when I got out of the dungeon
