I understand that this was not a free to play game originally. I think I understand how content is put out as packages and these are mini DLC.
I like the idea that NEW content is created for all levels. I sort of understand the reimcarnation concept and that is why new low/mid level content is still produced.
But as a new player I have no idea what to do next.
I am level 5 and all my quests are either level 2 or require a purchase from the store. As a Veteran MMO player I have gone through many a leveling process. I welcome new ways to move a player through the story and building a character. But I do expect some guidance in progression, especially in the early stages.
I started the sharn syndicate quests and now it requires a purchase. I bought one content package and now I need to buy another one. I only did the intital purchase because players and stream creators informed me what were good factions and quests to do early in the game. I wish I was told by the first quest giver that this was a DLC before I invested time into it.
Am I really required to go to forums or wiki to get direction on how to progress my character and to know what quests I can and cannot do free? I know I can go to other sections/areas but this breaks continuity of the story and I am concerned I will miss something needed for my class, race, etc. because I don't have any direction as to what is the "next step" in my character's story.
I am not usually a person that whines and complains or tries to paint a dreary picture all the time. This post is 50% frustration, 50% sincerity in wanting to play this game, and 50% confusion. Not the fun kind of confusion that I experienced on the very fun puzzles in the early dungeons. That was fun and my math was much better then.
To anyone that read all this I thank you and I appreciate your time and willingness to help. I had a LOT of fun up to this point but the last two days were just wandering around lost.
