Discuss : Have boosts been detrimental to the playerbase

[sindriiisgaming]

It is in my opinion that both job boosting and or story skipping have both been determental factors for the players. Both the new players who grab them rushing for engame and the players who get dutys with them. One potential mitigation may be to put an accountv restriction on skipping. Say you want to skip to endwalker or beyond depending when you see this post. We'll with such mitigation in place, you would first need one character at dawntrial + in order to do that. - I understand such a change would impact xivs profits, but somethings are much more important such as the health and dignity of the game and players.

Now seeing how yoshida was considering a flat out skip to dawntrail so people don't have to play the game.. I think this discussion is more important now than ever.

We should also mention the effect that allowing new jobs to be started higher and higher level is having on the health of the game. I personally am overwhelmed by super high level job kits on launch because I don't get to experience learning them through leveling. Sure I can go farm 1-80 dng. But such a move is an utterly pointless waste of time that doesn't help offer anything good for my time. (The exp is nothing) so I'm either forced to facilitate the games desires over my own or just waste my time on a motonous grind. There should be an optional toggle to reset all job exp to 1 on new classes

But I speak only for myself, and I wish to know what your opinions are on the matter and if they've helped/hindered you
