Thoughts on Isgard Lockout.

[Dererk]

Maybe it has more to do with the majority of people being too lazy and want to level up the new jobs on the 2.0 main story.

I think I'm maybe going to see if I can get some level 30 or so Levi quests done with out turning them in then do turn in once I get dark knight for that exp LOL.

That being said, I've never heard of an MMO expansion being gated behind a 250+ quest chain before! O.o I understand building off of the previous content and keeping it relevant, but there will be a lot of new players with the expansion, and I get the feeling that they may feel a bit annoyed at the quest line. You reach 50, but then can't go to the new areas and got to keep running around the "old world" for a week could really burn some people out.

While FFXI didn't really do this it took over 3 months to get one job to level 30 then had to unlock that then level that to level 30 wow over 6 months of leveling. Also couldn't access a number of areas in it with out doing a whole bunch of different quests number of which included rng. Heck even dark knight was a job you had to unlock separately from the others.

This is how it is always been with MMOs. People want to experience the most current content. If you force new people to do 545454654654654 quests at level 50 before they can experience the "newest content" a lot of those players may feel discouraged.

Hey hey hey at lest they will be getting experience points from all those quests past the ultima weapon mostlikly we not going to get that most likely.
