    I mean, the moment you are done with the sidequests you will be doing all of the other sources of XP for the other 18 or so jobs you didn't have side quests for. There is no way side quests will give more xp compared to MSQ's and MSQ's don't even compare to a single FATE. So what exactly are you hoping for? You will still largely do side quests for story and lore. That is their purpose. If you don't like that then ignore them and move on.
    There is no reason they couldn't give more than an msq if it was done right, for example as an armory bonus or if they were associated with systems that were delayed (such that you didn't accidentally get launched forward in pacing inappropriately). Many things give more than an msq, it's not some sacred number that can't be gone above.

    Also on the other post about obsession, the OP says it's not some deep dark issue that makes the game horrible- it's just silly feeling and makes them feel relatively unrewarding beyond /maybe/ some interesting lore. Some quests are lore interesting, some are not- the ones that are not and have poor exp feel like a waste of time.. at least in comparison to other opportunities, and this seems like an unnecessary situation given there are ways to amend that.

    This change won't ruin balance and will make them feel better to some players (like myself and those chiming in agreement). There is naught much to lose and some extra appreciation to gain. I don't see any issue with asking and receiving if it was listened to feedback (assuming they take measures not to launch people forward in pacing when they shouldn't be).

    As myself and a few have said a desire along the lines of taking one job to cap wouldn't require the quests to have absolutely absurd values, just more than they have currently.
