Leveling a Dragoon after Heavensward - Bye bye Immerson! (MASSIVE SPOILERS INSIDE)

[Waterdeep]

This is the reason I cant immerse into the story.

Yshtolas sister is my summoner trainer, yet when we met she didnt act like she knew me. And she and I literally just saw eachother.she even taught me a spell. Is a simple "hi how are you?" Too much to ask.

Also having a single player story in an mmorpg is kinda lame.

The main characters are saying the exact same thing to me and my alt.
they are just using us both

Really? She greeted me with something along the lines of "Hello Rin, how are your studies going?"

[Arkenne]

When I managed to get around the ARR story, I was already a NIN and had a very odd feel when I met Yugiri for the first time.
They saying "oh we come from a far away land and have a different way of combat" and there I was with my daggers hanging on my belt :|

Yup, was wondering what would have they done about the DRG quest... guess nothing, huh?

If it's from 2.0 it's locked in a time bubble.

Such a cop-out. They should have just been more careful making 3.0 to avoid this problem. It's not like it's a new concept, SE have been doing MMOs for 14 years now, this is the first time I've seen this line of reasoning.

Or maybe you should just stop overthinking things. Change your outlook.

So either you want them to entirely redo all the old quest every expansion, just not move the story forward, or have our character play no major role so it doesn't matter.

[Erudain]

you did it in the wrong order.
if you had finished the DRG quest first, when you first meet estinien in the main story he'll recognize and acknowledge you.

this is basically the same reaction when people did the CUL Quest after nanamo was poisoned

Lol and this is what actually bothered me by the ending of 2.0 and all of the 3.0 history.
If you did all the DGN quests Estinien hates you, he tryed to kill you, you kick his a** , he pleads to Nidhogg for more power and you still kick his a** and "it seems like" you kill him.
Now, not only he shows up alive & kicking at the end of 2.0, but has no issue with you and you have no issue with him?....trolololol

Here's a wild idea. Why didn't you complete all the available quests and content before the expansion dropped? Oh is that a ridiculous request to demand of a player. Weird, kind of like demanding the dev team to remake old content instead of focusing on the new content.

1) Players starting after an expansion is dropped should complete all quests and side-quests before they move on to the expansion? what?

2) Actually I'm asking them to be careful with the new content, not retcon the old.

So either you want them to entirely redo all the old quest every expansion, just not move the story forward, or have our character play no major role so it doesn't matter.

See above: Make a new story that allows you to do the quests that can be done in any order in any order without internal consistensy errors. It's not like this is some crazy new standard I'm asking for, it's pretty much the minimum.

I see only 2 option to avoid it
1. Estinien should have never show up in the MSQ
2. finished DRG lv 50 job quest should be a requirement for the one quest in the MSQ where Estinien join you
