MSQ Needs Further Condensing

[Tuska]

Because it's a Final Fantasy game. Its main selling point is MSQ.

Says who? Nothing on the box cover or anything official says "The main selling point is the MSQ" it only states that it's an MMO and MMOs by nature have a TON of main selling points depending on the player. Some people only play for raids, crafting, the social aspect etc.

However even if it's officially stated "the msq is the selling point" what does that have to do with making it required? It's not a single player it's a mmo and every mmo (with the exception of bdo) has lore, story, a reason for why you're killing x boss and why you're in x location, yet it's not forced.

The story can still be there but it can be optional for the people that want the mmo part since it is after all....a mmo.

The developers don't WANT to be like other mmos in this regard, and for good reason.

So then why do they have everything else other mmos have? They aren't even doing anything different remove the forced story and this is a more casual WoW clone. It operates no differently than any other themepark mmo.

If you aren't here for story go play one of those other mmos, simple as that LOL.

If you aren't here for the crafting go play another mmo.
If you aren't here for the raiding go play another mmo.
If you aren't here for the glamour go play another mmo.
If you aren't here for the erp go play another mmo.


Imagine playing a mmo and then boiling it down to ONE aspect of it...and the weakest aspect at that, the story, which is a one and done deal. You spend more time doing other things that aren't the story....
