Brevity is the soul of wit: Request to fix the horrible writing on XIV's quests

[Wolfie]

Because the world of final fantasy XIV is akin to that of medieval Europe, it's believable and needed, this game's atmosphere would be completely ruined if we changed everything to currently used dialects simply because someone is too illiterate to enjoy the atmosphere.

This issue brought to you by lack of education.
The more you know ★

I don't think you understand what this topic was meant to say. The dialect and vocabulary is fine. What's not fine is that every time you start a quest, you are presented with an entire novel to read and the only way you're interacting with the NPC is by spamming X to make the text go by faster. What makes that worse is that for most quests, once you get past the initial diatribe, you get very little lore text or anything.

Make the NPCs move around or something, give us cutscenes, change the music or tempo, make us answer questions, or simply shorten the dialog. But after the 5th or 6th paragraph of tangentially important backstory that an NPC throws out on our screen, most of us are just hitting X to get rid of it and reading the summary on the journal page.
