That's fine, but make it relate to some new kind of optional content, not a required barrier that one must pass to have the privilege of progressing towards cap.
    Ehhh a good mission/quest something to do at specific points in the game is entertaining to me, im not saying it should be like hunting rare items, or something, but its good to have milestones, that have some sort of backdrop or reasoning, make you feel like your charachter is actually proving itself and getting better, rather than killing 2000 pterocs

    I can agree with that. One thing I feel they really fell short on was the reasoning behind a lot of what we currently have available to us, especially the primary missions, which, imo, is a very important part of the gameplay. Right now I am not sure why I should be compelled to join into the main story at all. I guess what I'm trying to say is that it currently lacks an early hook that makes me think "This matters to me." There definitely needs to be some of that. Even so, it is much better to want to do something than to be forced to do something. If they wish to reward effort, here is an idea. Instead of forcing one to do a quest to increase their cap, give the cap increase and add a quest available at the previous cap that gives one a boon when completing it. Perhaps an extra 2% SP for the next 5 ranks, or a special materia only available from that quest.
