    It reminds you to pick it up and complete it after the 2.0 MSQ is done and explains that it's necessary, and a cutscene shows you where you pick it up from. Then it doesn't let you progress through the final patch quests if you didn't do it.

    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."

    I might have seen a message at some point that I clicked away (but really I don't remember). For fifty levels long, FFXIV players are kinda "trained" to the fact that they're safe to not miss any story or job related quests, because these always appear in (or near) the MSQ indicator. But not at this very important point. If there's a dialogue and cutscene as you say, players might think: "Nice, that will be in my MSQ indicator anyway, because everything else is".

    At this very point, the game breaks with its own behaviour and tradition. And beyond that point this doesn't happen again (if I remember correctly). That's why I consider this to be a story related (or user guidance related) bug that has to be fixed.
