    I never understood how anyone can truthfully say they enjoy a game when they request to skip 90% of the game and demand the same things/privileges that those who played the other 90% do.

    Yeah it's kinda like buying DLC but not wanting to do the main game itself.

    Because every other MMO does it like that so XIV should do as well, apparently.

    People should be happy that gating HW to 2.x completion is currently blocking RMT bots from dominating HW gathering markets. They can't pass Steps and some other stuff without human aid, no matter how much teleporting they do.

    New players want to be able to play alongside their friends, and their friends most likely would prefer doing the latest content over helping a friend(who may not even stay with the game) trudge through the lengthy MSQ.

    Agreed. And the fact is, the MSQ doesn't really have any branches or direct player interaction so it is quite possible for someone new to the game to catch up storyline wise by just reading a recap or watching some videos, and I say that as someone who does like the MSQ. Is that as good as actually playing the MSQ? No, but it's not fair to say that people who want to skip some of the MSQ don't care about the MSQ. Some players just have other interests or would rather jump into what's current instead of wading through the old stuff.
