How about being able to play all cinematics of a campaign once you finish that campaign? I think it'd be a grand idea.

Definately. There are still quite a few cinematics I never saw becuase I was the odd man out when it said 7 out of 8 party memebers want to skip this cinematic.

Yeah that would be grand! like.. after you kill the lich, shiro or abaddon, you get an option..

After you view the cinematic it should show up in a Cinematics folder in the GW directory.

Bone palace cutscene ftw!

you can replay several NF cinematics (although not all) but i agree it would be a great addition to be able to view any cinematic uve "unlocked" thus far.
So

It could be a list in a tab in the Quest Log.

Click the tab 'Replay Cinematics' and then a list with the names of those you have already unlocked should appear.

absolutely! It would be great to pick up on storyline bits you may have missed along the way without having to redo the missions...

Seeing the sequences without going through everything again would be neat.

Darkobra · Jul 20, 2007, 04:55 PM // 16:55

I love the idea. Dunno if they'd ever do it, but no harm in at least suggesting it and hoping.

I don't want to go back into a mission just to watch the cinematics.

Missed a lot because of "7/8 wants to skip..."
A NPC to talk to for cinematics would be nice.

Dougal Kronik · Jul 20, 2007, 09:51 PM // 21:51

I would love to be able to watch the entire campaign's cinematics uninterrupted from the first to the last.

It'd be like a movie with my characters starring in it.

Most mission outposts already have one... problem is, he only replays the cinematic you get when you unlock the outpost.

Making it so he can replay any cinematic from that mission after it's been reached once would solve this problem easily...

For many reasons listed above.

I love the idea, and as Keneth said, it would be great to go through the cinematics without redoing everything.

MithranArkanere · Jul 21, 2007, 03:10 AM // 03:10

You can replay some starting cinematics, but absolutely no ending ones.

Tylos Angelheart · Jul 21, 2007, 04:04 AM // 04:04

Yeah i think this is a great idea and i totally agree with whats been said. Many times i have been in a party and you dont wanna hold them up by being the last one not to skip. I like a lot of the ideas on implementing this too. Hers one of my own....

PLOT SPOILERS
just a warning :P

The bit just before you fight abbadon thers a cutscene you can watch from the guy who enters you into mission. you click it as an option and you see the cutscene of getting ya heroes together.
could implement it like that where you select to view scene from the mission guy in an area.

Or

Could select it from the map when you click an area you get the window so you can select district etc could put it on there.

well theres my two cents on the idea anyhow lol

The cinematics in Guild Wars aren't a strong point in the game, in my opinion. Especially seeing your sword and shield disappear as you ponder what Master Togo says...

And if you really want to see a cinematic but you're the only one who hasn't skipped, don't feel bad. No one will ever know it was you that delayed the next area.

It would be neat to have some kind of cinematic folder or special NPC that perhaps unlocks it for you if you meet a certain condition, but this suggestion can wait until the game is properly balanced and polished.
