It's not as if they can look at someone playing Holm Switch with Thancred, Ryne, and Y'shtola and immediately know that access to that functionality is gated behind finishing up the MSQ and being in Avatar mode, leveling the trust avatars. Having it be "Thancred's Avatar" allows for newer players who may not understand the trust function to see that it's not just a feature they missed while playing through the story.
It's not as though we have players who don't even understand that they need to actually complete the MSQ to gain access to post-MSQ content, though, right?
>>>> People might be new, but they're not stupid. That's a very important difference.
There's no reason for the line "People might be new, but they're not stupid," if the implication isn't that only someone stupid would not be able to figure out immediately that said access to the functionality behind utilizing certain characters is MSQ-gated and is only available through the Avatar system.
There was a question there, instead of answering the question or clarifying your statement, you skirted around to pull a tiny little "gotcha!" moment. I'm going to further assume that you indeed, meant to say that only stupid people would not be able to make the connections as stated above. If that's not an accurate assumption, you can further clarify. If it is, continue to skirt around, or whatever you please.
