Please consider scaling back the "time-gating" on some older content

[Vahlnir]

These things are time gated, sure, but they have almost no bearing on the MSQ. Players are free to do as they wish. If they want to stop doing the MSQ to focus on optional content they can easily come back and do later with no drawbacks then that's on them, not SE. They can also do all of these things while they do the MSQ. Time gates exist to keep players busy. That's just how it is.
