I decided to poke at TESO since it was free on epic and it's truly the most MMO thing in the world:
you get a giant setpiece intro mission where a lady is imprisoned and you're like damn.... I'll come back to rescue you.... someday..... after 40 or so levels of content.... and then you go to town and she's just standing there in a building like "it's nice to see you again, it's been so long since we went on ALL those adventures" and I'm like. oh. this is the 'season 2' main quest or something huh. And they just enabled it for everyone because players don't like the old stuff anymore. Amazing. Truly an incredible blender-ifying of what assumably at one point was a coherent linear narrative
