Quality of Life Improvements and MSQ Gating for New Players

[Hasrat]

As players, I should be able to experience everything the game has to offer ASAP, at my own pace - if I don't want to touch battle content and just want to craft and gather, playing housing and dress up, and market board PvP - I should be able to do ALL of this without needing to complete any MSQ. If all I want to do is dungeons, trials and raid, there should not be any barrier of MSQ that is gating everything...

Says who, exactly? Just because I bought FF7 doesn't mean I'm entitled to fight Sephiroth right now. Playing Super Mario Bros. doesn't entitle you to just skip to 8-4.

Sure, some games may allow free access to all content from the start. But that doesn't mean every game is required to follow suit.
