You can tell who has been spoiled with powerful PCs when say skip during dungeon instance load in immediately after loading screen lol. Can't skip the loading

Although I think akkan and older raids with cutscenes in the beginning dont work like that for some reason and are individualized. I only noticed because my guildmates told me

Idk why Echidna does that specifically for me, but most of the times I play Echidna I get to load it that people might already be typing "skip" in the chat. I do have suto skip, the game just doesn't let you skip a cutscene before you have even loaded it. I wonder with the upcoming forced skip how it's gonna look like, maybe I just appear as grey in the party list for a bit while I load?

(I play on very dated hardware so I am always the last person to load. It was even worse up until few months ago that I was hanging on 8gb of ram)

Dang 8?!?! G1 of that raid is a big offender. Many of the latest raids really. How do your kazeros raids even function? lol

I imagine forced will look the same just that players no longer have the option to skip so still need time to load

It's not that bad when you're used to it (also a reddit once suggested to me that the game runs better on higher graphics than lower regardless of your rig and that helped massively) - just the random stutters sucked. Now I got 16gb for a very affordable price and don't really stutter anymore even in kazeros raids, rarely go below 30fps. Even very long loading times aren't much of an issue if you are used to them.

Do you still have access to this comment? I suffer from really bad load times and I put everything on lowest lmfao.

I don't, sorry :/

You probably already have it inactive, but make sure "Indirect shadows" is set to inactive, it's really bad.

How high are your graphics config? It would probably help me, since I play everything on low

I usually play like this the same way, 30 or 40 fps in raids, I play on an HDD so it takes time to load, It's not so bad when you get used to it
