So about that progression. One of the things I HATED the most when I was going through the progression was shit like the Mote Amp. It is genuinely bad in every possible way. And the way you move past it is to build a real amp. Which CAN be obnoxiously grinded by running out at night and grabbing the fuckers who fly away and so forth. Or you can just do a few Eidolon hunts. And while you won't be the main damage dealer, you should be fine in a tier 1 pub so long as somebody is.
And that is what the bounty and quest teach you. Maybe you do star chart on solo to start out because you want to learn the game rather than spend the entire time jogging to the green extract while some obnoxious vet is whining that you aren't fast enough. But this teaches you that you do want to be ready to pub because it lets you do content you might not be geared up for. Because 5-15 bounty is hard for a solo player with poor modding at level 10-30. It is still trivial for a group of newbs. Or trivial for the MR25 player who is doing a Nightwave.
I don't think it is sufficient for it. But it is clear that DE is teaching people that the best way to get better at doing an activity is to actually do it. Rather than wait until you are "ready".
Also: I "love" how Duviri and now the heads up of a fast forward are bringing everyone out of the woodwork to get angry that new players might not have the exact same experience they did. Like, I think the paid skip is kind of scummy. But Reb was totally right to point out that most MMOs already do this either with a level skip token that comes with an expansion or just sunsetting content entirely. It needed a lot of work to provide MR progression but I still think the Duviri start was an awesome idea (reminiscent of Guild Wars 1 having a different start with a lot of the smaller expansions).
