Can we start getting serious about having ARR restructured?

[Hatstand]

Problem with this is that it would really mess up the story timeline. We can, for example, not enter Ishgard until certain events in the MSQ has made it possible for our characters to do so. For many dungeons, the reason our characters go into them, is beacuse of events in the MSQ. Etc, etc.
Now, some people will of course not care at all if they skip backwards and forwards in the story, because they did not care about the story in the first place.
For many of us it is quite important to have things happen in the right order though, and for us your "solution" would make the games story a tangled and near incoherent mess.

So provide a toggle. Let yourself play in "Main Story Mode" or "Freeplay Mode", and switch whenever you're in one of the three starting cities. People who want the story experience can do so and those who don't mind can leave it be. And if you like the story stuff but you want to run a dungeon with your friends you can toggle out, go run it, then toggle back and go back to your story.
