During this DT disaster I have been playing other games, mainly WoW and one thing I have had happen to me multiple times is I get to a certain point and a quest will automatically pop up in my quest list with a small sound effect directing me to some sort of content I had no idea even existed.
This has helped me immensely with not missing content and important quests that I would have otherwise missed simply because I didn't know they were even a thing that existed and I really feel this should be implemented here, esp in early game as a qol feature for new players instead of relying on them to either stumble upon them, remember they exist or hunting down the info online considering new players especially may not even know what to look for.
Sure the quests are blue, and you can make them blue, purple, green, golden, shiny, or spin and flash like a disco ball, but if a player is not on the correct map or actually knows to look for them, many are easy to miss.
For instance at level 30 there shouldn't be just a small, easy to miss message that just says I can start job quests, have them auto start and direct the player to the npc. The chocobo license quest and the quest that makes your choco an npc companion should be the same. The new expansion/patch starter quests, alliance raids, 8 man raids, deep dungeons, and many other important blue quests are all things new players are not going to just know about and would be super helpful. And if they don't want to participate in that content that is fine and we already have the ability to untrack quests.
This would solve so much of the, "I didn't know..." or "I didn't remember..." problems some new players have and even for vets it would just add convenience.
Anyway, just a thought.
