Main Scenario Restriction Bloodstorm - Very Very Bad idea.

[AlphaFox]

To be honest, I think the main concern for some is probably just the classes. If the new classes (for whatever reason) are stationed or move to 2.0 area (say Dancer gets a new expansion room in Ul'dah, Redmage perhaps in Limsa) then I assume most worries and concerns will be gone. Kinda how the initial class change was done and being level 10 first, lock these new jobs to level 30. 50-60 class quests in HW areas and finally 60-70 in Ala. However, I do agree in locking the new location by the story but classes, I'd assume that would turn a large number of people excited to jump in and play a certain job, only to find they have a LOT to do (or cutscenes to skip) to get to it

Why the new content and not the old?
The content for a new player is new no matter what level,patch,etc.

Dynamis also required level 65. Let's not sugar coat this. And 65 in XI back in the day was a helluva lot harder than 60 in XIV is.

ayyy

better we begin to name other MMO system having a story like this and certainly now that you mention classes

(This change makes it a while ago)

The problem with three classes especially HW is that are linked to Ishgard, if they want to make a change could cause new classes are not linked tho Ala mhigo.


PD:The mentality "Only High Contend" its the real Wow Killer.

What reason would a fresh level 30 have in going to a level 60+ area? Other than running or sneaking to a town full of gear for 60+ characters.

For fun...?

When I played WoW, I ran my level 10 butt through the Plaguelands to attend RP events and meet up with other players. Did that for other zones, too. I've wandered around higher level zones in pretty much every MMO I've touched for various reasons that revolve around "for fun".

Death Knights aren't locked behind hours upon hours upon hours of story quests.

NONE of the three HW jobs are intrinsically tied to Ishgard. The DRK quest is literally just "let's do a bunch of terrible things in broad daylight to be as edgy as possible to go against all these stuck-up knights" which just as easily could have taken place elsewhere in Coerthas. I'm doing the AST quest right now and you aren't even learning Ishgardian astrology. The quest could be based out of the Observatorium and have NOTHING changed save for the location of the quest giver. As for machinist, they could have easily established a workshop just outside of Ishgard to serve as a player's introduction to the work.

There was no sane reason to lock those jobs behind Ishgard.
