What other MMO has done this, and why does SE think it's a good idea?

Do you have a link and/or quote for an interview that they will start in other cities, cause we know that at the very least the machinist guild is in Ishgard. Just wondering for my own curiosity, i enjoy the MSQ

He said it during the PAX East livestream. [...] He did also say something about being able to complete the current MS as one of the new Jobs, and I can't imagine that being outside his control as Producer and Director.

Must these threads always go in circles?
