Too easy!

[Mara]

While I appreciate everything you are doing to the game to make it more enjoyable and fun you are making it way too easy. Everything now a days is higher drop rates, higher drop rates, higher drop rates. Hey lets increase seal/card drop rates in abyssea so every one can have them in 1-2 days. What happened to taking time and patience to aquire the best of the best? Every single post I saw on the Q/A were complaints that drop rates were too low and you (SE) are feeding right into people's lazyness. While I understand that certain mobs were not dropping properly and needed to be fixed lets not go overboard and think that is an end all solution to maintaining a player base. Bring back the original FFXI and give us some challenges and by challenges, yes I mean difficult to kill monsters (which we have some of) and the challenge of testing people's patience like the original FFXI MMO was.

Yes, because waiting 3 days for a single mob to pop, outclaiming 80 other people for it, and waiting in line behind 23 others for an abjuration with less than a 1% droprate that you then had to pat 2M gil for the cursed item just to upgrade worked oh so well...? Stop whining, I enjoy being able to lowman things for real rewards without devoting time I no longer have to camping overcamped HNMs that there's a good chance I will not even get the claim on anyway. I think anyone that wants to go back to that has to be crazy. Things are great the way they are, there are still things that offer challenges to small and large groups alike, and the game is more rewarding and less frustrating, which to me = more fun.
