    It already is like this. All Job content needs multiple players to complete...yes, even the Level 30 Job quests cannot be soloed unless you are Over-Lvl plus all the AF Quests require an 8-man PT to even participate.

    As this game progresses I am rather certain there will be more Party Content added than Solo Content but I, for one, hope SE will remake the Main Story Quests more exciting and interesting (even harder) but they are still Soloable (or at least need to be over-lvl to win).

    As it stands now XIV is kinda solo till 30 (15 for subjob), then start to party...and I am fine with that...it just needs to be more interesting and exciting getting 1-50 and that is where solo content belongs. If you're not interested in questing to level, then go get a Plvl and rush to your Ifrit Drop Headaches.

    BTW, if a future Expansion Pack has a story arc that requires Party-play to complete, I am fine with that as well. I just think the Original Main Story Arc should remain Solo (but harder) content.

    What these people don't understand is that forcing noobs to party to do main story line content will only alienate new players. They need to take their time to learn how to play. And you learn that only solo. Most players don't have time to form parties and participate on LS. Taking one of the few interesting solo stuff in the game will only make things worse regarding adding new players
