I'm all for taking it slow for someone's first time. And I definitely enjoy stuff when I run it for the first time (except alliance raids - thank gawd they added lore information OUTSIDE of the Nier raids unlike in the Ivalice raids) and take my time. I enjoy the beautiful scenery (and eagerly look forward to being able to just walk through more dungeons for photo opportunities whenever they get around to it - and I hope the raids will be added eventually, both alliance and normal). I don't rush content, unless that content is leveling up alternate jobs. I enjoy the main scenario at a comfortable pace as well as class/job quests, side quests and anything else I touch. I read all the dialogue, talk to optional NPCs during quests (which is how I ended up liking Y'shtola so early on in ARR because she was just as fed up with all the run around errands as I was and it was nice to see a NPC resonate with my frustration). Even now with Endwalker drawing near to release, I'm catching up on content I've yet to complete - such Eureka, Bojza, Triple Triad collection, minion collection, mount collection and those damn legendary fish from ARR.

However, when it comes to running a dungeon after the first time, being able to take on everything a path has to offer in a single pull is fun to me. It's fun to me as a DPS, Healer or Tank and from what I know, it's fun to my mates as well. As they're leveling a tank, they trust me as a healer to keep them alive even as they make mistakes and learn or if I'm tanking, trust me enough to know I won't drop in three seconds while being mauled by a dozen and a half mobs.
