The kind of quests demoed in this video are not side quests. They are XP throw aways. They serve no purpose except to give Solo players a way to gain XP.

If you want a quest base leveling system, you have to do it right. You don't give players five quests that ask them to kill 5 different monster ten times. That's just solo grinding. You make quests that involve the developments of the region in which they take place. You have them lead players to interesting places and to meet knew characters.

If your "Quest" requires you to talk to the starting NPC more than doing anything else, it's not a Quest. It's an XP give away. There shouldn't be hundreds of Quests. There should be dozens of long progressive quests.
Apparently you don't have a clue about what you're talking about.

I'll get straight to the point. Side Quest in Final Fantasy is optional. You don't have to do it, you don't have to get a Gold Chocobo, you don't have to get Lion Heart. throwaway quest right? because you don't need them to beat the game.

What they demoed was two quest aimed for Lv12 and below, what else do you expect from a 5min demo?
