Humble Request: Add Story (a.k.a. Easy) Mode

[KisaiTenshi]

I request that since scaling up in difficulty is an option, let scaling down also be an option. I don't care if I get nothing for my troubles but finishing the quest.

I just want to see the story in its entirety, hence Story Mode. A far easier version of the dungeons that can be completed by any group of any size, from 1-8. Watching the story on YouTube is pretty impersonal, so this would be great.

This would also reduce anxiety for introverted or less-skilled players (or dirty roleplayers like me). We all pay to play this game for different reasons and I think those reasons should be respected so we can all feel comfortable and happy.

Thank you for your time.

So basically "I already did the game, but missed the context of pretty much everything" right? Sounds reasonable as long as you've completed it and aren't expecting experience/items/rewards for it. (Nier:Automata let you skip the cutscenes, AND the gameplay).

What story can you not complete now? Honest question. If there's some story related quest you can't do, a group can likely be arranged to help you through it. That's been done many times before.

But no, the game doesn't need solo mode "story" dungeons when it's already easy to get groups to complete things like that.

I'd rather there not be a "solo completion" option (where you basically are invincible, immune to all debuffs, and enrage timers are off.) You can undersize party and complete Titan, Garuda and Ifirit Extreme at level 70 now. Some people said they can solo Coil Turn 5. As there is storyline attached to Coil, there is an incentive to see the story since it leads into Stormblood, but doesn't necessarily mean that the content should be tuned down to complete it. Rather Coil, Alexander Savage (or incomplete normal), and the Extreme primals from the previous major patches should go into their own "completion roulette", where if someone who hasn't completed it selects it for a PUG, it only sets them up with 7 other players who have completed it. According to minions and mounts that players have, only 5% of the players complete this content when it's new, and 30% complete it after the next major patch (presumably due to undersized party making some of it a pushover.)
