MSQ Feedback

[Vespar]

I like the little side puzzles!
What I dont like, is having story skips be available from the get go as suggested by some folks earlier in this thread. Why the heck do you pick up a story driven game just to skip its main feature?
In my opinion, story and job skips shouldnt even exist!
FC mates of mine that have skipped SUCK at their jobs, and then also regret skipping and so they go back and replay the MSQ on alts or NG+. Just don't bloody skip to begin with! But I digress.

Back to the puzzles. I honestly want to see more of this! I also want to see MORE SCIONS not less (particularily the ones we left back in the Rising Stones - Hoary, Coultenet, and the others). I also want to play as other characters for off-screen stuff also. Don't tell me about it, let me experience it! I loved that aspect in Shadowbringers and Endwalker. I've seen it only a few times in Dawntrail, and I loved it and want more of that back!

People are here for different things, be it the story, class gameplay, raids, or rp/gposing, etc. Sometimes it's really specific, which means anything else is just a roadblock they have to get through to do the activity they want to do.
That said, they shouldn't have every roadblock removed, especially if it comes at the expense of other players' enjoyment.

Chances are some of your FC mates wouldn't have started or gotten far if they didn't have the option to skip. If it got them to go back and play from the beginning that's good on them imo.
