I want to keep the story engaging, but at the same time I can understand the concerns here. Just outright removing the gating so a level 1 fresh newbie can go to Ishgard, that I don't want. But a non-battle character who has developed a reputation for their crafting and/or gathering being invited in? That I can accept.
