How badly do we want an old content revamp?

[Coatl]

Why would you update old content? Wouldn't you just want more new stuff to do instead?

I don't really care how baller they make praetorium look, I'm still going to be synced down to lv50 and not be having fun.

One reason is to make the game more approachable for new players without having to rely on the cash shop skip. ARR's MSQ is still pretty damn atrocious, as well as the pacing of the game in general. "It gets better" should be no subsitute for something that should be good throughout.

This.

The post 50 MSQ grind is basically the sales pitch for jump potions, and it's massively effective.

The MSQ story could use some smoothing out all over. HW's story was worlds better by comparison.

This, so much this. Have a friend that was put off away from the game because of the amount of time it would take him to reach SB to be able to play with me. Sure, there's the jump-potion on the Mogstation but it's kinda expensive for most people. (I hear WoW offers the story jump for free?)

And to be honest, the story in ARR doesn't get interesting till the Sultana arc, Heavensward? Uggggh! I loathed the story there, prob a few interesting bits but by the end I completely forgot why we where fighting in the first place, so far the best story by a mile, is the one in SB imo.
