Please Reconsider MSQ Changes

[Tempest222]

Maybe those speedrunners are thinking too much high of themselves and that without them, the game will die. Let's see when patch goes out for a reality check.

I don’t know, it seems like the majority of people running those dungeons are “speedrunners”. When I was doing the roulette a lot to get poetics, it really wasn’t that frequent that the group got the first timer bonus. It was usually just 8 people who had already been there before rushing to the end. People can try to paint those players in a bad light if they wish, but those are the players that are mostly in the roulette helping to make queue times manageable for newbies. Personally I doubt there are enough first time sprouts and random players also willing to sit through really long queues and a mega long dungeon to keep these two going. After all, it’s only your first time once, after that even sprouts are probably going to turn into “speedrunners” since the goal is to get in and out for the reward, not to rewatch what you’ve already seen.

Also I imagine SE agreed (at least at one point) that there weren’t enough players running these dungeons to get the first timers through and that’s why they created MSQ roulette in the first place. But now they are going back and making people not want to bother.

After the patch I really think the wait times to get into those dungeons is going to increase once everyone realizes what changes have been made and first timers will be forced to go to their FCs or to party finder for help, or possibly just get annoyed with the whole thing and quit since it’s kind of hard to continue enjoying a game that you cannot progress in.
