I don't know why people always complain about it, no one is making you do the MSQ roulette. If you are leveling a job, nothing else in FF14 gives as much exp for the time involved to do it, so it is worth doing now if you want to level quickly.

If you are just in it for the goodies, well there are more efficient ways in the game to get them if you have people to group with.

Plus, there are so many things to do while you are in the cut scenes. browse the internet, watch something streaming, do housework, hell, I have played solo boardgames during the MSQ cutscenes. You don't have to just sit there and watch them bored.
