Job Quests: Is that all for this xpac?

[Atamis]

I have a feeling the one job quest is all we get. It just kinda wrapped up some of the jobs previous loose ends. MCH in particular just kinda pushed the new NPCs to the front as finally being able to hold their own. The GNB one though felt like it opened the door to the next chapter in quests.
I think the role quests were an alright series, but not really a good replacement. I understand if they couldn't bridge the gap between the Source quests and somehow having in continue in the First, but i feel the lv80 quest could of been given out at 70 and then meeting the appropriate First counterpart at some point. I'm really curious if the First has Summoners and how they do things (If Bismark is a fae in this realm and presumably not using "vast quantities of aether" like every other primal, that seems BIG for a summoner) or Red Mages, or even classes at all. Seems like a huge missed opportunity to expand the lore of the various classes without all the baggage from the Source.

It feels like DNC and BLM ended their respective storylines. Everything came to a head and ended in a happily ever after thing.

I think you missed part of that story for BLM. Its not quite resolved yet.

That poor Lalafell still has an Aether imbalance that will either A. Kill her, or B. Turn her into voidsent or something. Far from being a happy ending

Anyone think the job quests will ever make a return?

Think? No. Hope? Most certainly.

I've found role quests generic, boring and impersonal. It was mostly about the hunter and the Firsts ex-WoLs. The last two quests, to me felt like glorified role tutorials.

Now I don't think they were bad perse, or that the job quests were better executed, but still.

I would be satisfied with roughly double the length of current 80 quests, but with actual relevant job story content (or something relevant to the shiny new skills we're getting). I guess DRK comes to mind? Without the useless running around.

EDIT: Curious Gorge though? Yeah I really dont want to see him ever again.

Some of the job quests seemed to just tie up the loose ends from the prior questlines, while others seemed pretty open-ended.

I assume the role quests were just a necessary evil of sorts due to the setting of Shadowbringers keeping us out of touch with the original job NPCs. Since we're presumably going to Ilsabard next it gives us more ground to cover with the job quests, plus some of the job NPCs have a sour history with the Garleans that could be expanded on.

She doesn't actually mention having any problems in the aftermath of the quest, so I don't think that's an issue anymore.
