Others I've met aren't new, but are hesitant to try because they're under the misconception that joining it requires more than it does, as the process isn't particularly transparent.

While I also encourage sprouts taking their time, there's also the fact that a lot of people don't always want to take six months sifting through the game to access content they might enjoy.



You're reading a little too much into my post, and I'm not a huge fan of having words put in my mouth. I don't see what's "fearmongering" about saying there's a prejudice against more tutorial-type information for new players, when there's already talk of the dreaded "hand-holding" everyone seems so dead against in this thread.



...except I am offering fixes to the issue? I was suggesting some text guidance, because I perceive there is a lack of information regarding certain content. I don't understand the need for the borderline hostile tone, either.
You forget the pacing of the msq where it dictates what blue quests are available. Again FFXIV is very linear and easy to progress already that you rarely need outside help to unlock things.

You also dont want to insult players intelligence or force them into shoving every single content into them and get overwhelmed. I honestly think THAT in of itself is more detrimental to the player experience than what you infer. Like I said due to how msq dictates what content is available, its very easy and spaced out what blue quests are available.
