Perhaps the story presented with competent gameplay will make them double back and ng+ or inn the parts they missed, but even if it doesn’t I’m glad they finally figured out how to enjoy the game on their own terms.

Of course, it’s possible they’d skip to Shadowbringers and find they simply don’t like the game at all. But that’s fine too, there’s no more stringing them along through content they don’t enjoy and they know they can give up.
Yeah.. with the way I am reading this OP, I don't think they would make it through HW, let alone make it to endgame. They would more likely than not get burned out, no matter how great some may think the story is. Besides, Shadowbringers was an excellent expansion, for story, and a great place for a new player to familarize themselves with the game and it's characters, while having a more rounded skillset, and actual fights - rather than fights that matter so little now, you just stand there and eat mechanics.
