I understand that the intention is to allow players to experience a piece of content fully the first time and not, say, be dropped in halfway through a dungeon. But the problem is this has been haphazardly applied to everything, and that makes no sense.
Raids and trials are just a singular boss. It makes no sense to apply this to those. You are not missing out on literally anything by joining in late on a trial or raid. I only learned about this change through another player because some idiot crybaby ragequit after ONE wipe on day 1 of the patch on the trial. This makes it so much harder to refill a group when someone does this.
On top of all that, this is an option you have to voluntarily toggle in the Duty Finder settings. You accept the possibility that you could be dropped into the middle of a dungeon. If you are going through new content and you don't want that to happen, you could simply turn that off or only do it through Trusts until you've completed the new content. I don't really understand the purpose of forcing this on people when queueing for duties in progress was already not forced on anyone.
If you're really going to stick with this change, at least still allow people to late join on a trial or raid even if they haven't completed it before.
