ARR in a nutshell:
THE WORLD IS ENDING, WE MUST ACT NOW, oh but go to gridania and ask for some eggs, then to limsa and get some tools then come back to me. Oh you're back? I wanted to some other stuff too, oh btw THE WORLD IS ENDING AND WE MUST ACT NOW, but go get me my stuff first.
This, so much this, and the writers were even aware of this.
I will never forget the damn quest from Tataru in the walking sands where she asked us to go pick up leaves in Coerthas for tea to "soothe the nerves" of the other scions cause they were moving HQ, she even told our character not to look glum.
I am very, very happy, that the story in the newer expansions are condensed and don't have *sniff the chocobo* sidequests anymore. But ARR needs some damn SERIOUS rework.
It's clear that they learned a lot from the experience, but they need to do something about it if they want more customers.
