Note WoWs dungrons require a bit more over all from their players in terms of dungeons. Not a jab at 14, but a fact.

Edit: The system also existed for players who boosted character for the longest time. You had to do a mandatory tutorial so you can understand what a class did, why it did what it did, and how it applied to the content you did it in before you even got released into the world. It did this for each of WoWs specialzations, which currently functions as sperate classes unto themselves. FF can definiately do it in my opinion.

Edit 2: Also Idm players not being that good at the game or as good as me, I'm nothing special. But again, this system puts more of the onus into the hand of lazy players who brute force the game hoping others adjust. With a mandatory system, systems that BnS and WoW have done successfully, would go a long way in simply making sure you want to play the game and not ruin another persons experience simply because they dont care. I would rather have a system tell them knowing your role is mandatory and important so it no longer falls into a grey area of the ToS when a players speaks on the matter.

The MOMENT the game tells you to play your role properly, the moment a system is enforcing that, you no longer have as many people going against the grain and those that to can no longer be defended for doing less then the bare minimum, when the game gives you all the information and basics needed to play properly. If me saying it to people is an issue, I'd rather the game say it for itself and make it the first thing players see when they open the game.
There are no mandatory tutorials within WoW, unless it is something they implemented in 2019 or later. Throughout the first 15 years of play in that game, you kinda-sorta learned a little bit about how to play, but there were no real 'tutorials'.

The 'boosted player' tutorials were on par with Hall of the Novice, and greatly restricted. I was particularly disappointed that Shadow Priest was not one of the Priest options for the tutorial.

And yes, I had the maximum number of characters on Cairne on Alliance side, and the maximum number of characters on < don't remember the world, it's been 3 years > on Horde side, and played the game through every race and class possible to max level. I gave up during BFA.
