While I understand you think it is unfair oblige players to do MSQ in order to unclok stuff, it is also unfair that players that don't care the MSQ are capable of unlock everything at the beginning in 1/10 the time than a MSQ player requires to unlock. So when players that do the MSQ reach the players that not, they will be far behind. I prefer everyone play the same game if possible. It is unfair player who didn't care play MSQ on A Realm Reborn can enter Ishgard immediately after finish character creation. Game is designed in the way that story is the edge of development. I think is not good idea change this at all. Not at this point. Game is like it is.

Otherwise, I agree that new jobs should be selected at the character creation screen. The only weird thing in this is the non level 1-30 class quest. (1-50 in case of Stormblood Jobs). This should be fixed to avoid a "void" in here.
