    [Suggestion]: Optional MSQ Re-runs.

    Was thinking about this one recently while leveling another class.

    One of the main features of FF14 is that you can level up every class on a single character. However this means once you've run through the MSQ for the first time, very often it means you never experience it again. For some people that's fine and they'd rather not have to slog through Titans Dinner and the Garuda chain again, but for those who'd like to experience it, it could be nice to have the option.

    Perhaps something like the following:

    When you start an alt class you can choose an option to reactivate MSQ. This would...

    -Set you to lv1, even if you're a Samurai/Dark Knight
    -Trigger the opening MSQ cutscene with Brendt/Brennan.
    -Reset MSQ progress for that class only.
    -That class would get the alt armory bonus for MSQ quests.

    In addition to letting you see the MSQ from the start again without needing a completely fresh character, it would be an alternative leveling path to roulette spam, fates and beast tribes.
    The idea could definitely be tweaked a bit but just throwing it out there.

    My thought is instead of redoing the whole story all over again, why not add an instance feature where you can play any instance from MSQ to relive the journey (maybe you can gain a little exp from doing that). To do it, just use the Unending Journey book from an inn (or your own house/apartment) and find the quest where the instance took place.

    Just saying this because many wouldn't want to go through those filler quests again while leveling a new class/job.

    It would be interesting if SE ever introduced a kind of resetting option for jobs where you could get certain bonuses for willing to start a job again from lvl 1 without having to create an alt character. I was thinking of how Disgaea has a system like this, but obviously in FFXIV we would need to avoid tying stat bonuses to the reset so that if people that don't want to restart anything don't have to, and won't be at a disadvantage if they don't. Reward could be certain items or gear etc

    Just is nice to go back to leveling sometimes and rebuilding your character again, especially with how easy EXP is obtained/accumulated these days. How many times have we ever restarted another FF game just to level up again... and perhaps because there story was good as well.
