Call me entitled, call me "cry baby", call me elitist. Call me what you want, it doesn't matter. I'll endure whatever SE wants to do and keep playing. Frankly, I feel the dungeons aren't even innovative (Some ARE fun, don't get me wrong. I quite enjoy Praetorium), and that SE could've done better given how well they did with FFXI's dungeons/end game events.

Don't get me wrong:

I do understand that speed runs CAN ruin the experience for those who are experiencing these storyline dungeons the first time. I absolutely get that and I agree their experience shouldn't be ruined. I feel that everyone should be allowed to experience the cutscene the first time they are in that dungeon. And no, despite that you CAN view the dungeon from the Inn, the experience is still ruined, you get the best experience by witnessing the cutscene while you're part of that game.

I feel that improvements are in order:

1) New players should be able to watch the cutscenes and not have to deal with bitching from players who have done these runs 50+ times.

2) There definitely needs to be incentive to killing these trash mobs. The current 'so called' incentives aren't good enough.

However, I feel that only nerfing speed runs all together without providing incentive to killing trash mobs is not the way to go.

(and I SERIOUSLY hate these 1000 characters limitation in replies!)
