New Player Experience Sucks! - Impending Expansion Problems

[PyurBlue]

I think they mean that you can accidentally do a side quest that previously required MSQ to unlock. Think of something like doing Omega raids before doing HW 3.5 MSQ.

This makes it easier to understand the concern over the MSQ, but there is more than one way to remove the story quest prerequisites. I don't envision anything that will force players to progress through the game differently. One simple example might be to add an option on character creation to choose to play in MSQ mode (what we have now) or free mode. More options can be added to provide more choices to player.

So to clarify things, what you guys are asking for is either free jump potions or some free option in game to flag the MSQ as complete for dungeon/trial/raid content purposes?

I don't have anything specific in mind but I don't want to change the experience for players that like the game as it is now. Being able to choose a point in the MSQ to skip to is one way of doing it and by making it a player choice, people can decide if they want to play FF14 as you would now, or not.
