New Player Experience Sucks! - Impending Expansion Problems

[Skivvy]

As I stated in a previous post that is one reason why I prefer XIV’s story over XI’s XIV feels like one continuous adventure where XI branched off in different directions with each expansion I love XIV because of the way it does MSQ and how it ties into everything and I don’t want that to change.

Ah, I see, you caught me before the edit. I did switch it up a bit.

Also, I will admit that even I prefer a story line that doesn't branch off into 6 various plot lines. When I made a new character in XI a few years back I completed all the story lines as I never had a chance to do that on my original characters. It was amusing to me how everyone completely forgot who you are when you started a new expansion. So i get that point, completely.

But with that said, I still think SE could find a way to incorporate a solid story line while also not forcing everyone to do a 100% clear (especially for the old content) if that's not what floats their boat.
