Guild Wars 2

Is it me or it is not possible to turn off cutscenes anymore? I just made new character and it won’t let me cancel the cinematics :/

Some cutscenes are skippable, and some aren’t. For example: the starting cutscene (where your character is talking about its race and story) can be skipped, but the cut scene describing the history of your chosen Order (around level 50) can’t be skipped. You have to move your cursor on the screen to make the “Skip” button appear in the bottom right corner.

There’s a bug where the Skip button sometimes won’t show up. Not really a high priority to track down and fix.

Also make sure you aren’t in F12 mode which removes all of your HUD information, including the ‘Skip Cinematic’ button during some cinematics and all vistas.

No, this specific cutscene i was talking about is skippable, it happens right after you create a character.
