So ! im a new player as you can guess ! (Duh! "new player help" subforum ofc i am D: )
Anyway i just purchased the whole game and pre ordered SB because why not, and im a little confused with some stuff so it would be wonderful if some can help me witht hem !

1- Fre companies, is that the Guild system in here? if so, how do i join one? and how important is to be part of one ? (wonder is really important since im new and full of questions)

2- I just got my character to lvl 30 and completed my SMN quest which was on the ACN class qust, so im wondering, if i want a BLM do i need to finish all the THM quest to get acces to the one that gives me the BLM job?

3- I just noticed that i get another quest for lvl 35 on the ACN guild to unlock Fester, does it means that i need to do 1 quest per SMN skill in order to unlock them?

... And ofc there is a Characters limit in a forum for whatever reason ._. imma put the others in first post.
