...And it goes on and on my friends,
Some people started writing it not knowing what it was,
So I\\'ll just keep on playing it forever just because,
This is the plot that never ends,
And it goes on and on my friends
**Etc. Etc.
(I\\'m just frustrated cuz I\\'m new and want to play the newest expansion but I cant till I play all the millions of base main quest lines. >___>)
While I personally don't advise what I'm about to say, there is a story skip potion available on the Mog Station. I believe there are two different ones. One that will only skip the ARR quests, and one that will skip both ARR and HW.
Hmmm... How much? Also I feel like Id miss something important maybe if I did that. I'm trying so hard to concentrate on the main plot, but they make it so difficult sometimes.
Also, I think I may be to the end of it, (maybe? It's like the end of the return of the king all over again lol) and so it may feel like a waste to skip now
USD$18 for just ARR, USD$25 for HW+ARR.
I too, hate content and objectives and things to drive me.
It feels like a slog, but there isn't much to rush toward in endgame. Enjoy the ride, I say: it will pick up pace soon.
Enjoy the story, there is so little to do at lvl 70 that many ppl only sub for a month, then unsub til next patch. So you are better off just riding it out if you enjoy the game and actually want to do a larger verity of stuff.
Once 50 hits the story gets immensely better and all the arr endgame opens up. It's mostly busy work but its still something to keep you more than busy til 60 and then again from 60 to 70.
This is one of those games where the journey to level cap, is vastly better than being at lvl cap.
I guess you could also just use a skip potion and make an alt at a later time specifically to enjoy the story if you want.
Personally i have liked the story and read i would say at least 90% of it all
As boring as it may seem take your time with because when you have NO storyline quests you're gonna be begging for more!
You say that now, but then you will be at end game and bored outta your mind because you out gear all the content you're interested in... XD You need to find an FC or something to keep you engaged with more than just the story and content part. Even leveling content is fun with the right group of people. <3 Trust me, it makes all the difference.
Yes, there are skip potions now that you can use. However, it’s expensive so if you don’t want to read all those story and lore, just skip them. If you don’t mind reading story and plot, I have to say enjoy it. Even though an MMO, it is still a final fantasy game and therefore story is one of its best features. I myself like the story and just keep waiting for the next patch just for it to continue. TIP: when you reach the 2.x MSQs, don’t count them, it will make things seem longer to you. :)
Take your time, and enjoy it. There's a lot of content on the way to 70 and you shouldn't have trouble finding people to play with. Yes, the NEWEST content is at level 70, but being a new player it's ALL new to you.
