Hey all, I see Dovetail has acknowledged the inability to skip the cutscenes. That's great and hopefully will be fixed soon but that's only half the problem. I beg you to add checkpoints to the PS5 version. Having to restart the entire scenario because I slightly overran a signal is infuriating.
I'm in favor of not changing this - I think it makes these runs far more challenging, forces you to stay on your toes and watch your speed/timing, and if you do fail, it gets you better at planning your route and learning all the ins and outs of the Sodor railway. HOWEVER - if they do keep the instant objective fails, they need to give the option to skip cutscenes once they've been watched through one time.
