I guess MMOs should never have expansions.

Yeah this games community is shit
I bought heavensward because I was stupid. I haven't even gotten a job unlock yet, I assumed that I'd get to try the new dark knight earlier. As I like drain tanks, however I didn't realize I won't even remotely get to play it till maybe next calendar year.
I enjoy the game, however it expects too much of a casual player. I don't want to raid and have no interest in it.
The only other MMO I've played extensively works similarly. LOTRO's first expansion requires leveling through the base game first. Then each successive expansion starts at the endgame level of the previous one. (Though to allow for players getting some expansions and not others, there are between-expansion updates to the main game to provide alternate leveling paths.) But you can't start any of the expansions from the beginning of the game.
