You have not actually given real examples of how to avoid grinding. You just say things like "If it's fun, then it's not grinding." Also, grinding can be fun. I'm grinding by playing TT over and over...

Okay. I'm honestly asking this. How does a MMO not have grind, and stay in business? How does a MMO keep people from just blowing through all content, and then leaving?

Doing the same three dungeons, or even ten dungeons over and over again via roulette is still a grind. Yes, it might make it a little better since you don't have to do the same one over and over, but...

I think it is all well within reach. I've earned 150k MGP already, and I play for 4-5 hours a week. That's hardly living in the game. It's only been two weeks. There will be more added to the Gold...

Alright. I'll try to keep this short, and touch on all of these points.

1. The roulette bonus - It gives players bonus currency, which is used in some sort of grind. They are grinding currency for...

The biggest problem with the Lightning card being a tournament prize, in my opinion, is that it makes it too extremely rare for what it is. So we have four prize cards, right? Lightning was this past...

I agree. It can be reduced, and possibly with no harm. Not everything in a MMO has to be a grind, but there has to be a grind. If we're talking about the game in general, I could think of some things...

A few things here... You said in an earlier post that you are a game designer. So could you tell me how they could reduce RNG and grind? MMOs are RNG and grind. Heck, single-player RPGs are RNG and...

1. I do not believe that you flipped a coin 50 times, and got heads every time.

2. The original Gold Saucer was also a lot of grinding. In fact, the best way to get GP in the original (besides...

Have you run ST? It took me weeks of running it to get my BRD pants. Sometimes RNG is just very unfriendly.

On the subject; I see no harm in keeping the "Pass" button active. I have been in...

Not me, but I know this person: http://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comments/2esg3m/slide_ixiv_fastest_time_17_seconds/

I am guessing that it is a bug. I ran T8 last night, and we wiped 3 times. Then we practiced T9 for a while, so I died a lot, and my gear never even got down to 100%.

Roulette is the best. I like to play it at times, or just watch other people play it. "Oh. It's been red three times in a row now, I better bet on black." It's funny that they even display the...

Ah yeah. That's a good point. I didn't think of the myth gear. Also, that was just an honest question. I wasn't trying to call you out or anything. Hopefully it didn't feel that way.

You get company seals for hunts? Besides the few daily hunts that are FATE mobs?

I didn't, but okay.

Okay. That makes more sense lol.

You mean 2.0?

Kitru. Where art thou? I'm sure you have a readily available document from which to copy and paste to correct the misinformation in this thread.

I was thinking this as well.

I've used my retainers plenty of times without viewing the venture report, and it never disappears for me. Is that what you did, or did you view the report, but not accept the rewards? I'm just not...

Could you please provide a source for that? All I remember is that the only answer they would give is that they were monitoring the economy, and would base the prices on that. I don't remember...

I am guessing that you are one of the many people that didn't notice during the stream that he was a level 1 LNC (I think it was LNC. I know it wasn't PLD, and it was level 1), but was wearing PLD...

When you say "sensible direction", what do you mean? I tank that boss with my back against the wall. The dps/healer would have to be right on the wall with me to get hit by anything. If they took...

I think it makes a lot more sense for berserker to come from marauder. Berserker used axes in the past, MRD has a berserk ability, and the wrath stacks would make sense for a berserker.
