Not just witness. Participate. WoW did that "witness" thing by letting you touch a statue in the Wrath of the Lich King expansion to see the end cutscenes if you didn't raid, because it was all locked behind raiding. It was infuriating. EQ and EQII did the same thing. If XIV starts implementing playstyle ceilings like that era of gaming, then it will be time to make my way on after 6 years.
