Square you need to streamline the main story

[Hamada]

Sorry but you are wrong. The level 50 quests are neither tedious nor pointless. Doing quests is the fun part of the game after all - it is running dungeons over and over that istedious and should be trimmed. No dungeon should have to be run more than once.

..........
:

"What? No, raiding is the fun part of the game!"
"Get outta there, it's crafting or bust!"
"Triple Triad is true endgame!"
"PvP is MVP \o/!"
"I do nothing all day but fishing."

Fun is subjective. I'm surprised this fundamental fact hasn't yet reached some reaches of the world.

Let me tell you something,I did forget something on my list:
I do not care about the MSQ or this game at all. I just want to craft and help others and can't stand the gating crafting and gathering has. The game forced me to level a job and do the MSQ, I did not want to do this, I do hate how there is even crafting and gathering leves locked behind having a battle class. 1.0 did not do this, so why does 2.0 + do it? 3.0 made the situation even worse.

Me to you, (Auriana Redsteele, MistakeNot) Do not dare tell people what they should find fun or not. I did almost ragequit my alt over it too, do not tell me how I should of/currently felt about doing the POINTLESS TEDIOUS 50 msq quests for Ama. Telling me go 5 different places for no reason is .... just ugh...

Someone gave a potential solution to your travel issue and you conveniently ignored it. Seems like that's something you do on a regular basis just so you can complain more. In case you missed it, it was auto teleport or merge cutscenes to remove that travel.

Then you have a cry at someone saying what they think is fun in the game and yet you are doing the same thing, saying that you think gated content makes the game less fun. It's called an opinion and everyone has them. With how much you post I thought you'd know that already.

Me to you, (Ama Hamada, Hamada) Do not dare tell people what they should find fun or not. I don't care about gated content, do not tell me how I should of/currently felt about gated content. Saying we should just be given everything is .... just ugh...

But you telling other people that the quests they find fun and interesting are actually tedious and pointless and should be removed is okay?
I see.

I said remove the requirement from the MSQ, not the game completely. change them to side quests and make the MSQ with quests that is only relevant to the story, can't be that hard.

But they are all relevant to the story. Or rather stories because there isn't just one story being told.

The 2.0 - 2.55 MSQ doesn't follow a single, coherent, storyline. It is rather a large number of interconnected stories where the only thing they all share is that the Warrior of Light is the protagonist.
In many ways it is the story of how the player character becomes the Warrior of Light - which makes everything that happens to the character relevant to the story in some way.


This is unlike the Heavensward MSQ which mostly sticks to a single storyline - the ending of the Dragonsong War. (Except for the 3.4 - 3.55 part which sets up things in preparation for Stormblood

A similar thing happened in another game I play, now that game isn't known for its story but I did enjoy it regardless for what it was. They attempted to streamline it to make it quicker for new players. Its a total mess and makes no sense. Now part of that could be the devs not wanting to take the time to really pick, choose and edit correctly or it could be that it really isn't worth the time. Recently they added back in some of the quests they took out but label them as side quests, guess what... ITS STILL A MESS! So no its not that easy to rework a whole story of quests.

Maybe down the road they will have a fix and possibly its being thought about now but it shouldn't be rushed. If they choose to rework the ARR quests it better be damn near perfect because for people who enjoy the quests and don't care about rushing to the end, I'm sure they won't be happy.

Clearly Yoshi and SE find selling a jump potion a better option then destroying the MSQs and any substance this game has and many people are ok with that.
