Side Quests Rewards.

I'm a gamer who has only gotten halfway through the Stormblood quest line so far, but I couldn't help but notice that the game has a lot of touching, suspenseful and funny stories outside of the main quest line. While this alone can be rewarding for exploring these quests and also experience for the job used the game is starting to discourage me from doing these quests at least in the sense that for some of them I would really appreciate a better reward for the player in terms of some sort of keepsake item.
Respectively not all side quests are fun enough to be worth mentioning but there are many of them that are not marked in blue that are worth remembering.
I think it would also help the people who write and devise these quest lines because more people would get to these quests even if the memory items as reward quests were just for the glamour feature or other.

Please give these quests more weight at least as far as the really good ones are concerned.

In my opinion, there should not be more rewards for this quests. There are many quests that give achievements or minions as rewards. It's still side content that very few people actually do all the quests. Squar can't make special rewards for everything, otherwise other content loses its charm.

It's still optional content that can be played at any time I don't see the problem with rewarding those who actually play all these quests with something nicer than just gils and experience.
On the contrary, it would motivate players more to do this content at all and not just let it lie in oblivion while many times side quests are linked to the main story line and its background and explain a lot and belong to the immersion.

The rewards are fine for the most part. Players are always trying to find excuses to get more XP, more gil, more whatever for less effort when the main purpose of those quests is to reward players with additional lore about the area and the people living there. If you don't feel the current rewards combined are worth your time, then don't do the side quests.

The only motivation needed is curiosity. SE is not going to weight the quests in such a way that all players start feeling they're mandatory to do.

The only change I would like to see is the earlier expansion side quests getting the same XP scaling treatment that ShB and EW side quests have.

As for why the "better" ones don't always get the blue quest icon, it's because they don't unlock additional content. The blue icon is reserved for quests that do. You will see the icon change later in an expansion if it will end up unlocking content added later (very common with those that are required for tribal quests).

If you're thinking in terms of wanting a way to identify quests that start a quest chain, there is an indicator when you pick up the quest - it will have a picture included above the intro statement.
