Abyssea is important, the game has changed and will continue to change. Getting people xp faster has its pro and con. More people that are new might want to stay, i cant see a population increase as bad. True this can lead to more bad players but we all start somewhere. Perhaps a thread for new players would help to direct them towards being better players faster.
I burned a few jobs, before abyssea I never would have considered leveling all jobs (which I am in the slow process of doing and gearing all jobs properly)bedsides my orginal four: whm, blm ,rdm, drk. Those four where it for me. Now my orginal four and blu are very well geared, and I have enough af1/2/3+1/2 for the other jobs I have at 90 (12) that I can bring those jobs to events and be fully functional and then some (i consider them functional if they have less than 3/5 +2 or no empyrean, but 3/5 +1 or more and similar gear and capped weapon/necassary skill. jobs at 90 but lacking in these area are undercontruction and I wont use in a event, farming, or anything until i've soloed it enough at 90 and received the proper gear). This gives me more oppurtunities to help myself and others, and expands my freedom and enjoyment of the game.
With all the updates, mail delivery changes and porter moogles, this game is turning into something great for a wider player base. Yes I enjoy a challenge and I hope the new endgame is nail biting hard, because I like to take risks to recieve my rewards and have people say "wow, nice gear" and feel that I accomplished something. Voidwatch isnt as easy as abyssea but its not too hard either with the right set up. Lets see whats in store to come and I hope for a new AV because thats the kinda mob ff series is know for. rate me down, idc.
