Yeah that's fair, wow quest system was worse lol.

People who said he wasn't gonna get through the ARR patch quest desert don't realize he was tempered in the original WoW release quest grind. He even said so himself ".. yeah and? that's how you used to level for the whole game in WoW. This is gonna be EZ".

Honestly, that moment there was when I knew he'd be fine. My main worry was about the need to grind up DRK to 50 to use it in the story, but with that comment, I figured he'd be good to play as long as his whims allow him.

On all of that ARR stuff-

I've said it almost every time I make a comment on it, that my perspective is suuuuper dated, but I do remember some moments in ARR where I was doing it to do it and not because I was like YEAH, TIME TO BOOT UP THE GAME, but there were absolutely moments that I did have that excitement. That said I also make that comment as FFXIV being my favorite for story as an MMORPG, unlike most mmorpgs I tend to stick FFXIV in the "you get to compete against sRPG" categories :3 lol. Some pacing issues, and personally I still kind of wished the first hour or two was a bit more tailored (scripted? like FFXIV I felt let me out in the town so early and I just ran around for hours getting basic quests, my own fault yes, but I always imagine a FFVII, IX, X, etc, like intro or something where stuff just starts slapping right from the start), that said I've heard people who have been helpful and informative about all the changes to ARR and I'm confident it would be a lot smoother if I had came to it with fresh eyes again. From what I've heard it honestly sounds fine now, I think now I'm just mostly worried about people getting excited about 7.0, 8.0, and literally being told you wont be there until about playing Witcher 3 100% 4 times in a row, 4x binge watching friends, harry potter saga 18 times, etc lol. Although right now with WoW having all the issues that it is having FFXIV doesn't really need to worry about it yet, but if an MMO catches the good wind that FFXIV is currently enjoying (well deserved), that might be more important suddenly later and not really right now (like if one of these other new mmos coming out finally gets it right lol).

When I heard him say that I was like "lol- well then, he's making it to ShB no prob".
