The only thing ng+ is in desperate need of is being able to replay area side quests. There are a ton of amazing smaller story lines that arent even part of ng+.

Not sure why people are expecting a reward from content that exists purely so people can experience it again and nothing else. NG+ wasn't made for you to farm.
I wouldn't mind some minor rewards but they'd have to be very careful about. What I would LOVE is some kind of level sync optional feature though. Let people sync to the NG+ level state like they do with fates/dungeons/raids.
This could be paired with some kind of difficulty adjustment option for example. Hard puts you below the level by some way and applies ilvl penalties.

It doesn't need any special rewards, certainly nothing uniquen you replay it for it's own sake, for the story.
That said, it would be nice if MSQ quests still came with a minor amount of EXP, so that you can get some value out of it. Less than you'd get from 'live' MSQ quests, but enough that you'd be making some progress.
The only addition new game+ needs is for current expansion main story quests to be added to it much faster than the current pace. Like, concurrently with it's original release on each major story patch, but nothing after 6.0 is on there yet.
It's fine not having any rewards attached, it's just there for replaying the story without dragging an alt through it and all that involves.

Mh nope, it defeats the whole point of NG+. And if you see no reason to play throuhg it without rewards, it just means it's not for you and you can ignore it.


I wouldn't mind exp being added to the quests.
I would 100% level an alt job via new game+ if it had EXP and would probably enjoy it. I'm sick of roulettes and avoid them.
However it doesn't, so I haven't touched the feature so far.
I know it's unpopular for a lot of people, but I play this game as basically a single-player game, and so when I'm leveling alt jobs, it means that I'm basically just doing trusts/squadrons/other solo content. And almost none of that is story-based. Which sucks, because I love playing stories. With how many options there are for leveling solo, it seems odd that new game+ is the line in the sand. Make it give only 50% of the xp as usual, to make it inline with other solo leveling options.
I don't want mounts or minions. But I do want exp, because I would much rather replay the story again and again with different classes than sit in Palace of the Dead for 3 years straight.
It would also be nice if we could get some of the armor we get from playing through the story because if your main is a caster and now you level melee, you now have to either be severely undergeared or spend a ton of Gil on gear and I'd always choose staying undergeared over spending Gil unless I can't finish the content.
