M'Naago incorrect/anachronistic text

[Ajayrious]

Speaking to M'naago inbetween quests at the start of Stormblood she gives an anachronistic/spoilery response. See images below.





I've played the game since 2.0. I recently started a new alt character and have just reached Stormblood. I have purchased a job skip potion for White Mage (I think this is the reason why this has happened as it means the flag for the EW role quests is ticked.) and as a result speaking to M'naago results in her referencing things that happen in the future. At the time in the story we havent yet met Fordola.

Yah, that is a side effect of gated content/MSQ vs a Job Skip.
If you want a "pure" leveling story experience on an alt, then don't use a job or story skip.

While that would be the cause, it may be something they can fix by adjusting how the quests interact. The EW job quests didn't exist when the earlier quests were set up, so they wouldn't have planned for it.

That would be good, but it would need to be something that could be toggled, as many use the job skip to just max level as soon as possible and to skip the story and content, for whatever reason.
It would have to be sorta like a backwards New Game+ mode.
