This is really my only concern with the storyline gating the xpac. How many players are really going to be doing this required storyline group content at this point?

Sorry, but while I agree with the storyline gating to a point--and I'm definitely enjoying the storyline and the game overall--I'm very worried about how this will go for new players like me when it's time for me to do this group content so that I can progress to the xpac. I have some time yet for good or ill since my lancer is only 38 today, but I didn't preorder HW for this reason.
