"As others have said, if you dont want to play FFXIV, you can buy story skip potions, level jump potions"

This argument looks nice, on a forum, however, to an executive, it most likely doesn't. Again, if the length of the MSQ (allegedly hundreds of hours) weren't a problem, Square Enix would not have condensed it.

Personal preferences are fine, but they aren't always marketable.
