I did not know not skipping cut scenes forces others to sit through it. I have seen people say skip in the chat on some sessions. The last one I allowed to play was Aria's Occulas Abyssal dungeon because I was screen recording it all as it found it quite amusing involving Seto. Shame Abyssal dungeons cannot be soloed. The game has now been set to skip them. As for holding people hostage, you see that in some Abyssal dungeons where people will give opposite vote on quitting. Not skipping dungeon cutscene to see if the user is idle, that can happen with skip dungeon cutscene option checked too particularly if you are called away.
Its kinda funny. I mean I am new to game, I'm not skipping cutscenes, and there is also an achievement to not skipping cutscenes. Killing two birds with one stone here. They can cry me a river, I'll build them a bridge to get over it.
I always play the dungeon on normal alone to watch the cut scene. And then run on hard in a group and skip. But everytime there is someone that does the dungeon first time on hard and wont skip. Its happend on every dungeon so far.
I feel like this is one thing BnS actually handled well xD (rare to say that sentence)... If you skipped it, you'd just see the people who didn't skip standing idle in the room. A really good solution in hindsight is to create a Cutscene Theatre sort of option somewhere in the menues, where u can just watch cutscenes back that you've experienced or skipped already.
yeah well most people will say just solo the dungeon if u wanna watch cutscenes since all the dungeons are quite easy solo, but idk if it's good game designed to encourage people to play solo in an mmorpg for dungeon content.
I disagree. I think Blade & Soul's way of handling is worse than in Lost Ark. BnS's solution heavily discourages anyone from ever watching the cutscenes, because the fight will be going on while you're watching the cutscene.
Any cutscene that has anything close to relevant story info (terrible story but still) cannot be skipped if anybody in the party is new. The cutscenes youre able to skip are literally just environmental showcases or npcs "dramatic" entrance. If you can skip it it doesn't matter, if the game won't allow you to skip it STILL doesn't matter because the story is awful anyway.
This is not true, it just isn't. There are a huge amount of scenes that you can skip that contain story elements. And also I've thoroughly enjoyed most of the story.
I think it's really simple: you want to have things your way all the time? play solo. And I say that to people who want to watch, those who want to skip, those who want to hunt mokokos, etc, etc. As soon as you play with other people, you have to make compromises. It's how real life works, and mmos are no different. So imo both the people who complain about those watching cutscenes and the ones complaining about being pressured to skip are wrong. If other people's behaviour troubles you so much, play solo. Otherwise, welcome to the real world, other people will do things oyu don't like
Abyss dungeons u do weekly,why would i watch it every time i do it especially when he joins not from matchmaking but raid party which says fast dungeon and know mechanics...Like,cant u read?why u joined pt?
i play gta and i do alot of missions i will admit ive said Skip a few times but ive been playing for years doing the same missions over and over . if someone in chat said it was their first time i would just chill or exit the game and start again with a new group if i didnt feel like waiting. my thought on cutscenes as a solution . you make the cutscene the loading sequence and if the cutscene last to long because it someone first time everyone else can load in . Or have some tryhard option to solo those dungeons . like a button appears that say "Dont wanna wait" and if you press it you detach from the group . to run it soly or exit and find a new group . i think it could be a simple fix
The argument of running the dungeon solo to watch the cutscene goes both ways. If you hate people watching the cutscene instead of skipping, you should solo the dungeon too. Queuing matchmaking for these dungeons is same as endgame content - there'll be people who don't skip cutscenes, don't know mechanics, afk or worse. If you can't deal with it then just play solo, or queue with people you know/guildmates. TLDR just solo and don't be bad lol
Tbh it’s a game development issue. They shouldn’t put cutscenes in the start of a dungeon or where ever where you make others wait. FF did a good job avoiding that after the base game because they learned their lesson after that
As someone that doesn't skip unless 3/4 are up I see their side of the story LA has solo modes for people to go into and watch cutscenes they are basically holding people hostage if the whole lobby wants to skip they should have majority skip to fix this issue
Your probably right, that being said I'm willing to put money on the fact that they were told off by skippers before they say anything lol. Why would they just join a dungeon, no one says anything, then tell ppl to kys for attempting to skip the cutscene they can't even actually skip without consent from the whole party. I don't think a majority of people would say kys unprovoked.
that's a fair point. If 3 out of 4 people want to skip and one guy is holding the party thru them cutscenes I can see how it can negatively affect the party.
If they think this is bad, i wonder how they will deal with the LoL hostage keeping haha. People need to relax about the skipping, if people want to watch let them watch.

Can legit solo the dungeon, and skip all the cutscenes u want.
Dont need to 4 man all dungeons you literally get the same loot.

I've treated the game always as a Single Player Game, the Elefant in the Room are the Main Quest relevant Abyss Dungeons
I always hit skip but now knowing people lose their shit when folks don’t skip makes me want to not skip.
If you don't skip cutscenes ur a degen roleplayer
That’s why I’d just solo normal mode first, no one to be a dick about me watching cutscenes!
I always play the dungeon on normal alone to watch the cut scene. And then run on hard in a group and skip. But everytime there is someone that does the dungeon first time on hard and wont skip. Its happend on every dungeon so far.

I’ve never had anyone complain about skipping if it doesn’t get skipped oh well gotta wait a few seconds ain’t the end of the world lol
All the dub anime watchers don't skip the cut scene lol. Skip the cutscenes people!
I don't really mind cutscenes. Most people skip through literally everything in this game which make it kind of a braindead experience.
People always want to rush rush rush. I enjoy taking my time I’m still only level 40.
I don't skip. People do lose their minds get cussed out everytime. Wish the community was kinder but what can ya do.

YEAH DUDE! like if u wanna grind just go solo or find a like minded party.
@@Manifestus. indeed. imo you give other people far too much control over you if you constantly complain about how they're playing the game
Abyss dungeons u do weekly,why would i watch it every time i do it especially when he joins not from matchmaking but raid party which says fast dungeon and know mechanics...Like,cant u read?why u joined pt?
There should be an option from the devs. to add cut-scenes to a gallery so you can watch them anytime.
The PVP video of them taunting each other and croud cheering MUST be removed, its the reason I don't pvp. That fukin video every single time
Dog I say play solo if it’s your first time and wanna watch the cutscene
i play gta and i do alot of missions i will admit ive said Skip a few times but ive been playing for years doing the same missions over and over . if someone in chat said it was their first time i would just chill or exit the game and start again with a new group if i didnt feel like waiting. my thought on cutscenes as a solution . you make the cutscene the loading sequence and if the cutscene last to long because it someone first time everyone else can load in .

TLDR just solo and don't be bad lol
it doesnt go both ways, solo is faster than grp. If you wanna speedrun, you solo. Group is slower by a longshot, so you can expect to watch cutscenes

if you are doing hardcore and dont' skip. you are a huge count. go play normal then.
Count Dracula?
I haven't had any issues but if I do I'll just block them.
I have yet to see screenshots of people harassing others for skipping, but it's possible that non-skippers have also told skippers to kill themselves.

I purposely yell skip if my 3 teammates try to skip cuz i miss when amongus was popular
apesta xD

well for me never happened and this server is cancer
that's good to hear lol. what server you on?
let them watch the cutscene xD who cares in swords of legends there r videos no one can skip maybe would be better for lost ark
yeah people can't wait 10 seconds lol. I use it to get a drink or something.
This is not news at all. Ive never seen anyone make a fuss over this one way or the other no one cares.
Ah since you’ve never seen it then it must not exist that’s an ignorant take indeed.
@@Jarke It sounds like an American only issue.
Ff14 does it best
nothing like finishing my laundry during a main scenario roulette ;)
