Don't skip cutscenes in Praeotorium if first time

[Fuz]

They can go on without the people that are enjoying cutscenes, if they want to.

seriously this whole thing of skipping cut-scenes is getting ridiculous. People need to stop being jerks. So what you lose a few minutes, here ill give you some advice so you never have to worry bout cut-sceners again. DONT use the friggin Duty Finder, make a pre-made speed run group. There i just saved you the trouble of dealing with cut-sceners. HAPPY HUNTING!!!

And you have no right to tell the people speed running it they can't enjoy the game as they want either.

If you can't get a group together for speed running in Mor Dhona in about 1/10th of a second you're a scrub who doesn't deserve the welfare gear from spamming CM anyway.

well said, i agree

[Fiosha_Maureiba]

Agreed in that if you're doing it for story, I wholly recommend letting the party know up front that "Here for story. I watch cutscenes."

Pre-fix on AK, a lot of players seemed to understand and wait.

Today, if a speed runner is serious about speed running, there are usually loads of people itching to do the speed run too in Mor Dhana, so filling up a party of 8 with the expectation to speed run would be more time efficient than rolling the dice with duty finder.

It's overall more difficult to find folks in the same place in the story as you are, so the reverse effort of finding first timers, cut scenes watchers, or tolerant of cut scenes may be tougher, longer, far less time efficient than the speed run crowd.

Hopefully, players won't express that "carrying with scrubs" attitude. Cause it comes off as "I'm an asshole" to some people.

I have been hesitant to do this dungeon because of this. I did CM for the first time yesterday and, luckily, the group didn't get mad for me watching the cutscenes, but they were moving on while I was watching them. I felt a little bit like a burden. I might wait for more people in my Free Company to hit 50 before doing Praetorium so we can do a story run. I really want to do it so I can get my GC weapon though.

[Hoffles]

I'm all for letting people watch the cut scenes if it's their first time, but I also wish there was an option to remove the cut scenes once you've done the dungeon for the first time. It's getting pretty tedious to having to skip cut scenes all the time.

[Esmian]

If there's one person watching a cutscene I just tell the rest of the group to pull anyway when it's just a pack of trash ahead. I mean it's just trash. They aren't missing anything special and the rest get to keep moving.

[KogaDrake]

skip the cutscene and watch it in your inn later or miss the dungeon when we kill everythign while you sit there watching the cutscene now, simple as that.

want to do it for the first time, watch the video's and not have overgeared players making everything a joke so you can truly experience the run, build a group whos not speedrunning for tomestones.

[omgitslos]

Agreed! I told them when I joined that I am not skipping cutscenes unless they felt redundant (which some were). It is a completely different experience than going back to an Inn.
