NG+

Very much as HyoMinPark says.

There's quests and story lines people want to relive, that's the incentive behind it. When it's dungeons and trials you like you can just queue for it, but the rest of the story content you can only do once per character and rewatch cutscenes. Or at least until now.

Personally I don't see the need for any other incentive.

Oh, I will. I want to see some of the solo fights again.

I won't be using it anytime soon, but not because I can't level with it... I already have all but three jobs leveled.

I have a lot of alt characters that I have at different points of the story, so right now it doesn't make sense to do the story again. I am excited to be able to though.

I'm in the same boat - my alts need story progress so it doesn't make sense to replay via NG+ at this point... the MSQ at any rate.

Still, it will be great for things like job quests and side stories once they're available, since I don't unlock everything on every character.

(I'd love to replay the CT quests but all my characters have either done it already or aren't far enough into the game. Also it would be nice to not unlock it for once and hypothetically only get higher-level raids from the roulette, if I ever got the characters that far.)

There's also definitely an appeal to replaying it as my main character instead of having to be a different character going through the same motions each time. Heavensward and Shadowbringers in particular are quite "personal" and it's a bit odd replacing one half of a relationship between two characters.

That's a shame that you dont even get xp. Is there any incentive at all to engage in it besides indulging in nostalgia?

Does there really need to be something else?

Does there really need to be something else?

For the time and resources invested in making the system, I'd wager that SE would like a certain return on that investment, i.e. a lot of players engaging with NG+. Without an incentive, there will be fewer people interested. If too few partake in NG+ then that investment ends up being time and money wasted.
