I thought you joined Jenova, Vader? Why did you ask us which server we played on, and then join a different one?  Oh, I see how it is now. Hrm

Cause none of them let me join up when I was signing up.

That's because you didn't call Square, and let them know that you are a reviewer for TheVGPress.com. If you had, you could have chosen any server you wished! And gotten free stuff too!

I beat the game, yay! And how were the final bosses, well I really wouldnt know. The last two dungeons are with a party of 8 so now there are two tanks. I arrive at the dungeon and the team flies out, we run past enemies,the tank is attacking like 50 guys at once. There is a huge light show, its a complete mess of lights and shit, I am standing around wondering wtf is going on, everything is dying in two seconds. These guys are way above level 50, their items must be near maxed. I get no instructions, when I see a cutscene the team was already half way across the map. I did almost nothing and we won.

Then came the final dungeon, same shit. They were speeding through it. I was told to skip the cutscenes cause this was taking to long, I said no so they said ok we will go without you. For the entire final dungeon I watched cutscenes while they faught the boss. By the time the cutscene was done the boss was dead and onto the next one. Not that they needed me, they destroyed the boss. I cant even blame them, why should a whole group wait for one guy and these are not short cutscenes. So I watched the end of the game, I may go back and play it later.

Thats MMOs for you, what a disaster. The reason those high level guys are doing the mission is cause if you do a random draw dungeon you get major bonuses. Leo this is what awaits you.

That's crazy.  Honestly, there probably shouldn't even be in cutscenes or perhaps an unskippable twenty second cut scene every once in a while.

Right, the only real way to fix this is to not have a ton of cutscenes in the middle of a dungeon that they know everyone will be replaying. The boss fights probably should have been separate (they do that with a few of the bosses, you queue them up like their own dungeon.

because the last two dungeons have no level cap there is no syncing, where higher level guys get lower stats to fit the dungeons like all the other ones. So it's a bunch super Heroes beating the shit out of the level.

I redid the final dungeon and this time I was with an awesome group who waited for those who watching the cutscenes. We chatted about game stuff as we waited. So not everyone is an asshole. The final bosses kind of sucked.
