Story-skip potion for endwalker

[Makeda]

Please sell it, I need it..

I've never understood people who go to a movie and ask for it to be skipped to the ending credits.

This is very much a story based RPG first. I get skips for alts, I used to keep 1 toon of each race leveled. But skipping to the last page of a novel never makes sense - and that is what you're asking for here.

It will affect us in a few ways.

1. Those people will have a competitive advantage in finishing leveling all the jobs to 90 faster if they skip the story, thus being able to show off their mount/achievement on social media earlier. And we all know that only the first few posts get all the upvotes/likes/attention.

2. It will create more pressure for other people to catch up to them, creating constant dilemma in those people about whether to pursue the story for fun or buy the skip for efficiency.

3. They can immediately access all gathering nodes, which allows them earlier market opportunities than the general public.

Only the last bit of this would concern me as the other two are vanity. Chalk it up to two issues I could (maybe) have with it. But, then again, I don't bother gathering or crafting. So it really doesn't affect me in the slightest.

I still stand by my point.

Oh god no, I wasn't targeting it at you, you're completely fine my friend. Yet again, I am just incredibly bad at my words, in hindsight I should've mentioned that this wasn't a targeted post.

You are a kind person. <3

You are a kind person. <3

I'm truly not, I'm kind of unnecessarily mean and crass, I just also know when I am at fault is all.

The quests hasn't had any issues for me. Pretty straight forward even the escort ones and the solo instances.

lol

lmao, even.

Please sell it, I need it.

THese new quests are so extremely annoying. Ive read all of ARR, HW, SB, Shb and enjoeyd it, but endwalker is cancer. These followers that bug out, the npc that you have to chase and not get seen, the unaviodable solo instances that are just not fun.

All I wanna do is play dungeons and endgame. All these new quests completely ruined the story for me, please end my suffering. I was once a big fan of the story driven game, but when the quests try to stop you at every corner and make you fail for the stupidest reasons, then enough is enough.

If one is not interested in the story, at least let them skip it. If it was just dialogue or videos, fine, but these failable missions that serve no purpose but to block us? Remove them or let us skip them.

Im done with my patience on this one. Im just tired of this repeated bullshit they throw at us.

I take one of these!
NPCWalker is annoying. Endless cutscenes filled with unimportant dialogues...

The beginning I can understand, it is cutsceen after cutsceen and more then a few of them could have been cut or pieced together with another without ruining the story.
But at a point, around the lvl82 quests, the story kicks off and just gets better and better. Also, the amount of solo-duties could have been reduced, and at least one of them should have never been there.

I'll never understand why some people are so against the MSQ being optional. If you wanna do the MSQ, do it, what would it take away from you if people had a choice?

Because several people in this community have an odd attachment to the MSQ that extends beyond their own enjoyment. FFXIV is a "story based game." Therefore, everyone must play and enjoy the game for its story. Nothing else matters. It's not unlike people who simply cannot fathom how you dislike Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, Marvel or whatever else. While it's understandable to an extent. People who thoroughly enjoy something often want to see how other feel about it. Some... take it too far and demand you enjoy it.

I'm someone who has always vouched for an optional MSQ despite also loving this game's story and lore. I just don't see the need to force that onto others who simply enjoy raiding, social aspects or whatever else tickles their fancy. Yes, yes, I know raids aren't out at the moment but I'll admit, I'm not looking forward to grinding my alt through Endwalker for when Savage does release.

I agree, please add the EW skip. Literally only because people get so annoyed over story skips as if it personally gave them cancer.
