New FFXIV players are still falling foul of one of its oldest pitfalls

Few things bring me as much joy in modern games as watching new FFXIV players discover the world of Eorzea. As all the "critically acclaimed" memes and jokes that surround it suggest, there's no doubt that it's one of the best MMORPGs on PC right now - something I'm reminded of every time I watch a new person discover it for the first time. However, many still fall foul of one of its oldest pitfalls, leaving them at a big disadvantage.
