Hi, I'm a relatively new player, started this game about a month ago. Now I'm at lvl 66 with my bard.

So I wanted to share my experience and make a few suggestions for the MSQ.

I really enjoy the story and I really want to play through the story with other characters and classes again, but there are two things, which stop me from playing the story again.

Problems:
1st: The MSQ between the classic FF14 and Heavensward... I think it's called the seventh astral era quests. This was a real pain, it's absolutely too long without any progression for my character. I almost quitted this game because of it, cause I didn't know when I will start progressing again. And the story in that part is boring as well. So I fear that maybe other new players quit here as well, which isn't healthy for the population for this game.

2nd: Dungeons and bosses with partyfinder.... damn, some queues till finding a group are taking up to 1 hour! Sometimes I don't have so much time gaming, and waiting 1 hour to get 1 quest done is a disaster. I don't want to get through this waiting time again. Everytime a quest with partyfinder pop up, I get the feeling of "oh no, please not again". Maybe you know what I mean.

Suggestions:
1st: Remove the MSQ between classic FF14 and Heavensward or shortened it somehow.

2nd: Please remove Partyfinder quests, give us bots who can help with those quests or change those quests to solo quests, lower the bosses HP and dps etc. I know it's an MMORPG, but I don't want to depend on other players for the MSQ. Endgame has enough stuff to do with other players.

If those two things are done, I would be playing the MSQ again with other classes and enjoy it alot more. And these two things could also help other players to stay in this game.

Thanks for reading and sorry for my english. I'm not a native english speaker.
