I asked this on the official GW2 forums, got zero replies. - "What happened to sharing cutscenes?"

Those forums are useless... They should just close them.

On topic: Cutscene & storyline sharing. This is one of the things that interested me the most during closed beta. Why am I not sharing cutscenes with my girlfriend on the beginning Priory story quests? She’s slyvari, I’m Norn, and we finally have the SAME quests, but… But we are not sharing cutscenes, meaning we aren’t switching back and forth between characters (her and me) during conversations.

We are getting a pop-up at the end of each quest asking if I want to continue with my quest as if I just did mine.

This is how it worked in the past, right? Am I crazy? What’s going on here?

I specifically remember this kind of thing working when I did story quests in closed beta with my friend who lives in Israel during the Norn personal stories… I think… Man, now I’m starting to second guess myself…

It's always been the mission owner* who gets the cutscene. Are you sure you didn't trade off whose story you were doing when you were playing with your friend?

Sounds like its working the same way its always worked, I'm confused what you want it to do.

Your crazy, it's always been this way. Party leader shows in the cutscene

It was never like that, even in beta. What you are talking about is exactly how it's supposed to be. Partyleader gets cutscene.

I... I could be confusing it with a different game. :( We played together SWTOR around the same time as GW2 beta.

Thanks for the help, everyone. I'm obviously crazy. :/
