    They need to rethink how they do story in 7.0 +

    Can have spoilers
    What I mean by that is cut the filler out. It killed 6.0 for me completely. If each time before we got to a new place and no one there know how we are it make some sense we do small things for them. But by 6.0 it gets old. Like we just saved some people from the end of the world , then we go serve tea and move boxes? Really? We are the god hero of the world and we doing this trash,why? Lots of other filler quests. Make them side ones at last. I hope that SE stop doing it and just do a main ques to the point. Even if it need to be shorter.

    there is no all time high in a story. the tension goes up and down. it wouldnt make the story better if they cut out all the calm parts.

    You think that's bad? Try doing beast tribes and scrubbing hippos, scraping the moss off of all of the walls, collecting excrement into sacks and spraying it over people.

    We would move boxes because as the "god hero of the world", we would be strong enough to lift boxes where a lot of people are not. Serving tea is usually a strategy to get information now.

    Lots of other filler quests. Make them side ones at last. I hope that SE stop doing it and just do a main ques to the point. Even if it need to be shorter.
    If the story was just all the exciting moments without any slow and quiet parts then the story would feel rushed and not real.

    In other news, there is no technical debt from 1.0.
    "We don't have ... a technological issue that was carried over from 1.0, because ARR was meant to kind of discard what we had from 1.0 and rebuild it from the engine."

    just because we've saved the world several times now doesn't mean we have to turn into jerks. lol

    Have seen this remark a few times, and I'll retort with the norm:

    Don't play RPGs if you don't want slow burn and globe trotting.

    Of the problems XIV has, MSQ quest flow isn't really a big one. It's standard for both the franchise and genre and personally I don't really want it cut down to mindless cinematic moments.

    Or looting seemingly toothless wolves and cats. Or beasts without hides. Or various hooved mammals without hooves.

    This sums up the experience perfectly.

    yes, you saved the world a few times so lets get all cocky and arrogant!!

    "im too GOOD FOR YOUR MENIAL LABOR!!!"

    there goes... any gameplay other than world saving which will get rather old rather fast.

    I pretty much lost it at this expansion when they made us track down like 10+ NPCs scattered around that town in Labyrinthos. But other than that, I don't think the rest of the filler content was that bad.

    Looking forward to the next escort mission where we can't get too close to the NPC.
