"New game plus - quests will have no rewards..."

[dragonkyn20]

Honestly all i have heard in this thread are excuses. The system would be much better if it had Xp rewards. If you don't agree, your deal. But let other people express that in peace. We don't need a fan club in our face when we want something in the game to be better.

"Let other people express that in peace."

Then maybe you should practice what you preach instead of getting antsy over a difference of opinion.

Ok...The proof is all over the reactions on this thread. You are purposely ignoring them.

You mean like the way you’re purposely ignoring the people who are saying, in this thread, that they will use this feature even though it doesn’t offer rewards?

I’ve read the dissatisfaction. But you’re ignoring the other half of posters that are literally saying they can’t wait for this feature.

There is no substantial amount of people that will use the feature on this thread.

If you’d like, I’ll quote every post that’s happy about this feature. There’s quite a few.

There's a group of yes-men trying to talk those of us that are dissatisfied from express our views. That is toxicity.

Judging by your posts, I don’t think you know what toxicity means. No one is saying you aren’t allowed to express your dissatisfaction (unless you’re actually construing that Shhhh meme as someone actually telling you to hush—which would be silly on your part). They’re telling you not to do things like use absolutes (like in your first post when you claimed “no one will use this feature”), to not try and pass off your OPINIONS as FACTS (“I think this feature is useless because it won’t progress my character, therefore it’s factually useless”), and to stop speaking for other people. And to work on your attitude, because it’s been aggressive and hostile since the first post you made.

Some will use the feature honestly. But it will be a very select group, because you only have to think about it. If there is no progression in the system it's a system that will compete for attention with systems that actually progress your character, wich is basically the rest of the game. It will therefore see low activity numbers. Sorry if the truth hurts or is too hard to grasp. If you want to pretend that isn't the case go right ahead. Not my business.

Unless you can see the future and have access to the developer’s statistics on how many players actually use this feature, you aren’t entitled to really speak on how many or how few will use it. You’re wanting it to be a small group to prove your arguments, but you have no way of guaranteeing that will be the case.

This may shock you, but this is a theme park MMO. Not every piece of content added to this game is meant to be used by everyone. Some pieces, like Savage and Ultimate, aren’t meant to be used by any sort of majority. If you want to pretend that everything in this game needs to catered to your specific needs, go right ahead. You will be sorely disappointed, though.

PS - Ultimate is the feature that earned FFXIV the most notoriety on sites like Twitch when it released. Considering it offers nothing but shiny, fancy weapons that aren’t BiS and a title, one can argue it also isn’t used to progress your character. Yet, it’s the most well-received piece of content that this game has ever received, and groups are still trying to get together to bear both UCoB and UwU almost a year after the former was released. Not everything added to this game has to focus on character progression and leveling—and there’s plenty of features that actually don’t.

Anyone who whines (yeah, it's a whine) about 'it takes away development time'... the EXACT same thing can be said about: Ultimate Fights, PVP, Savage... and any single thing that does not appeal to anyone in X category.

This appeals to a particular group of people. Who really really want to see the story again. That's it. THE STORY. It is NOT a waste of development to US. At all. We've been asking for this for AGES and... let me tell ya... I never ONCE thought this was how I'd level an alt class. Because pretty much EVERYTHING ELSE IN THE GAME hands me exp on a platter. EVERYTHING. And I'm pretty much bumrushed through it by everyone at breakneck speed, too. If I like it or not.

THIS is for story. And is NOT a waste of development time. Not to the people it is being developed FOR. And if that isn't you? OH. WELL.

fun is the reward

I was always under the impression that the main purpose of NG+ in this game was to revisit and redo the story. With that in mind, can't say I'm surprised with the lack of rewards. Would've been nice, sure, but not something I'd have expected to come of it.

I wonder if you can start in a different city than you originally did. I created my first alts so I could see the Limsa and Ul'dah MSQ, as I originally started in Gridania. I know ARR wont be there at the start, but it would be cool if you could choose the starter city somehow.

I'd love that personally, I've gone both Gridania and Ul'dah but I've never finished the starting story for Limsa and it'd be cool to play.

This is actually good for those who use job level boost to catch up with their friends and had to sacrifice the story

Other than that, I'm okay with the current implement because new game+ is all about replaying the previous quests, nothing else

MSQ gives double the exp of other quests so it would be a way to power level characters if they got Armory Bonus AND full MSQ.
