Which storyline are you redoing first in New Game+?

I started with Heavensward again and I’m gonna go all the way through to the end of Shadowbringers.

If i were to do it, Heavansward. Stormblood i would skip because it honestly was not overly great

Heavensward part 1... going through all of them in order.

Going to do it in semi order i say that because i can't play arr yet

I'm going to wait until they release ARR new game+ and go from there. I want to start at the beginning.

None of them.

But have fun to those who're redoing the story.

A realm reborn , honestly i dont see much point in doing it now without doing that story first , so ima wait

I said Heavensward in my earlier reply, but I might do as others here are doing, and stop and wait for ARR to be added. I still have jobs to level while I wait anyway...

I too will wait for the ARR story, I want to play it from the beginning.

It's been a long while since I did the stuff in 2013, will be fun to experience it again ^^

None of them. :)

Since I gender swapped mid-story, I wanna play through it again with my new character for screenshots and stuff. THat means waiting for the refurbs to ARR. :(

Waiting for ARR revamp too. I want to be able to get a look at the whole picture, so I will wait.

I'm glad there is somebody with the same mindset as me.

To say which storyline(s) I'm not doing. :)

There are some class/job stories I'll replay when they're added to NG+. Currently not planning to run any msq NG+. Maybe down the line when there isn't new content to be running.

The Warriors of Darkness part of post HW.

For those saying they are waiting untill ARR because they want to do the whole kit and kaboodle - you realise it will be the new, squished story, and not the ARR you did before, correct? If you want to re-experience that you need to make an alt and run it before they put ARR into NG+.

I'm aware. The story itself should be mostly intact. The "extra grind" is what they are phasing out.

I have started with ShB for fun then probably will go back and play through all of it starting with Hw

Heavensward because it has been so long since I played through it. Would like to revisit that story first, maybe Stormblood afterwards to check out dialogue that I missed the first time.

I'm waiting on ARR before I do NG+. If I must redo the story, I must do it from the beginning.

I've started Shadowbrings over since I pretty much wanted to play through it again as soon as I finished, but my alt is currently in Heavensward.

ARR

Shadowbringers first, then Heavensward again.

I think they’re wanting to see the changes made to ARR without having to make an alt. Personally, I’m interested to see how ARR will turn out, so I’ll probably do it on my main when it releases in 5.3.

None of it.
No rewards. No reason to do it.
If I want to see the cutscenes, I can watch it on youtube.

The only thing I was looking forward to doing was starting in the other 2 towns and getting the other 2 achivements that where locked out by my starting city.

Take this into perspective. I was willing to replay the entire MSQ MULTIPLE TIMES in order to get the two achivements I didn't have. Instead they have made something useless to me.

Well, this character is currently still doing ARR but for my Aur Ra main she will go back to do Heavensward. I wanted her to be my Far East main and jumped her to Stormblood. Now she'll get to live through the might of Dragonsong War \o/. However I do kind of want to wait for ARR and if I do, I will start at the final chapter that leads to Heavensward. Still debating actually. Gah! I'mo not sure now but I know she will go back and live through it one way or the other lol

The Warriors of Darkness are spread through all of post-HW to a degree. Don't just do the second part thinking "their story happens in 3.4" - it builds up through all of 3.X.

And the ARR edits are probably going to involve pulling out / sidelining the sort of MSQ quests where the person says "go slay three rats, then we'll talk about the important thing you actually came here for".

If they do make any more meaningful edits, it's still probably better to play that story than the old version because that's what will be canon from now.

Once I'm done with the current content, then Heavensward. I really enjoyed that story.

Not doing any of it. If it offered XP and gear for a new job I was leveling, then I'd use it. but just to experience old stuff? No thanks.

I would do Shb first as I was a female Xaela since the beginning of Il Mheg to the end of the story, I would like to experience it as a race in more comfortable playing as. After Shb I’d go back to HW as it’s been so long and I’d like to see if it’s as good as I remember it.

I said I would, keywords here, I don’t plan on doing it if there’s nothing in it besides story. NG+ modes usually come with a bonus or few, like more or duplicate items, new bosses, and I think a older FF or other JRPG had a completely new ending, but I’m not sure about that last point. There’s no incentive for those who aren’t super interested in the story.

Once my friends hit Heavensward I'll do it then so I can pace myself with them. Relive the story and help them along as well.

The stuff with the Sahagin from ARR, because I love me some Admiral and my memory of those events in particular is rusty. Then after that Heavensward.
Once the job quests are available I'll likely go back and do the DRK story as I skipped the job out of frustration awhile back and regret skipping Ishikawa's writing immensely.
