Because of fucking cloudflare, you could get disconnected during middle of your MQ attempt. I always get nervous about this.

Hence this suggestion: replace the animation of walking up the stairs and passing through each door with a simple, boring one screen where you select your key order then press OK.

If your key order was right, you pass. If not, you fail. Simple. Boring, yes, but at least if you got disconnected before you pressed OK, you'd just get another chance. In the current situation, you'd completely lose your chance at MQ if you get disconnected in the middle of your attempt.

No, I'd be fine with speeding it up, but not all in one go ^^

actually never had a DC during a MQ attempt. Maybe just lucky
But a part of MQ'ing is see the doors open one by one when u drag the keys to the door :)

I haven't yet either but I know it's possible and it would really suck. The more doors you have, the longer the process takes.
I agree with you, I like the animation and it gets more exciting the more doors you pass.
But cloudshit has ruined this experience. Now the slow climbing up the stairs makes me nervous. I'm always thinking, plz don't dc, plz don't dc.

Enter key order then a new animation occurs. Fight scene with pink unicorn
Pass shows you holding its lifeless head
Fail it shows unicorn standing on your body

Haven't dropped during MQ, but as stated it could be possible. Voted Yes, but personally think it should be a different layout.

What if the same number of Doors appear like the Keys from left to right & you place the keys in each door in the order you want first. Then you press a button to Unlock Doors. the animation will only show the opening of the doors if correct in order & naturally poof if failing. If you unlock all doors, you then you climb the stairs.

Not sure if that would work, but the animation process would be shortened, and maybe the key n door order is auto saved if it disconnects during the doors unlocking etc.
