    SE didn't just pull this "change" out of the "you know what of their backsides" and just put it in place for giggles...something drove it to be sure.

    Your server must have a lot of alts then. Don't judge all newbies in NN based on your personal opinion of some of them. As far as my server's NN we do have actual newbies, and a lot of them don't agree with this change. SE is appealing to a small minority of players with this change. Not everyone wants this change, even newbies.

    And yes, I think SE did just pull this out of their ***. Why now after ALL these years do they implement this change? Surely they know by now, that newbies do and can just PF for these dungeons and use the inn for cutscenes. The unending journey isn't there just to look hot, it has a purpose.

    White Knight harder lady cause it's not working.

    Because circumstances change. There is now cross server PF and datacenter wide DF. It's possible the old "do it here and watch it at the inn" mentality was a necessary evil tolerated because otherwise it just wouldn't get done if your server was lackluster on people who wanted to help out or do old content.
    Unending journey was meant as a way to go back and watch things you missed because of misclicks, or you were wearing weird gear and wanted your character to look nicer , or maybe you personally just didn't have time to watch it at the moment, maybe even just because you wanted to rewatch a great story again, NOT for other people to decide for you that the cutscene isn't worth it and if you HAD to know , go look at it later.

    There is a problem with this change, but it's not to the DF, it's that the restriction is on the dungeons even when NOT in duty finder.

    They sure did, and it is not the first time they make hasty decisions. OH LOOK at the glam changes, How long ago since they first announced to to giving us this pre alpha system? feast chat? Them actually showing these metrics and talking about it with us? nope jut blindsided us with a change where we get no choice in the matter.
