Rewards are Punishment. Yes.

It’s because of ignorance on players side .they think that making changes in game is as simple as switching the light on

If that were the general attitude, mankind would still be sitting in caves waiting for someone to invent fire.
"Bro, why it's so cold here?"
"Bro, lighting that wood is not as simple as waiting for the sun to turn up."

Chiming in here to add it really should be shared across account. ALL rewards. Not being alt friendly is ridiculous at this point. I know I'm not alone in not wanting every reward on one single character, not everything fits and it's pointless to do content I'd want the reward on an alt for. I'm not redoing the story/same content again per alt either, it's ridiculous to expect that or to shell out money for a skip for every single one.

WoW is bringing in housing and has alt friendliness. Frankly, it has much more to offer. I'm not interested in swapping to it, I want this game to improve, all of my stories and houses are here, after all. But my mentality isn't the same as others and I'm assuming plenty will leave for the game that simply put offers a lot more in general.

The 'all jobs on one character' thing is worthless to me, personally. It's not why I have alts to begin with.

Note: I know not everyone views alts this way, just sharing my perspective and gameplay. Not putting anyone down for just playing one character or wanting to. This is about those of us with alts.

100% agree. "All jobs on one character" is nice in theory, but the ludicrous levels of time-gating in this game hamstring it to a frustrating degree. It's the primary reason I always gravitate back to Guild Wars 2...

Simply just making MSQ-progress-based unlocks account-wide and nothing else would be an incredible QoL upgrade for FFXIV. And, to be clear, that doesn't mean the story is already done for you on alts! It just means anything unlocked via the story that you've done on another character on your account is already unlocked.

I would love a system like WoW's. Just realistically we will never get it because the game charges real money for extra retainers.

Same. I like the idea, but in practice all of my alts have their "main" jobs and one or two secondary jobs in their stories. I still play whatever I want in-game, but if each character was limited to, say, 5 jobs I wouldn't be terribly upset. It'd give me more reasons to go on my alts, though I understand this could be really inconvenient for others players and I don't want it to happen at all.

Pretty much. Bare minimum, we should have gotten an additional retainer for free with every expansion, glamour plates = to the number of jobs in the game (DoW/DoM/DoL/DoH), and an upgrade to 1600 slots in the glamour dresser slots at 7.0

Guild Wars 2 also has a better system to fashion....hell, 4 dye channels...Hell, better banking overall..

Yet somehow this game is stuck in limbo....I recently tried the outfit system and was baffled that the items lost their dyes and could only be dyed on glam plates. Feels more like an inconvenience than a feature.... Needing the entire set to make an outfit. It's not a well thought out system tbh.

A cynical part of me thinks things would never really improve and it's just a 'wink wink nudge nudge buy more retainers'.

Interesting week

[avraymk]

While I would absolutely love to see a World of Warcraft transmog system...

How much do have in you glamour dressed you never use? I know mine has a lot.

A lot of people play MMO's to "collect them all". Having the transmorg interface WoW has would absolutely encourage others (myself included) to get everything. You can also easily tie rewards to it: EG, fill out X amount of pages or collect X amount - get a new glamour. Quite a lot of potential.

Will we ever see it? I hope so.
