I suppose that's what you feel when you come into FF14 after others MMOs that aren't strictly focused on story telling and cutscenes. It was okay for us when we did it because it was relevant content and we ate it part by part, but when you come into game when it's 5 y.o. you need to munch the whole set of dishes at once. Can be really frustrating but, I fear, almost inevitable and works like this not only for this game. They work on changing ARR quests right now, probably will work on HW and SB as well later.
