Abyssea shouldn't be extended, honestly.

Still using gear for a measure your self and other. Why do you care if someone got something you have. Gear has always been a check list.

Nonsense.
1/ Why do you care if someone has gear that you don't have ? Looking at you pro abyssean.
2/ this game is entirely based on gear. Proof is that the reasons most of you like abyssea is that you can get the gear this time.

I happen to like abyssea because its easier for me and my friends to get together and do something, It was an enjoyable event we could do at the spur of the moment and accomplish things. We did this before Abyssea, But abyssea really made it more accessible to us.

It made the game a bit more fun to play in my eyes. It took the grind out of it. I could care less if someone has armor i don't. If i want an armor bad enough I'll get it, no matter what that means, with determination and Effort, Rather its effort in farming the gil to buy it, or effort in going to the event/camping it.

Some people like Abyssea for the wrong reasons, It doesn't make Abyssea a bad event, or a bad zone collaboration. It was absolutely awesome to me, and many like me.

I unlike some of those pro-abyssea people, Would not mind if Content became more difficult, Only that they at least keep an aspect, a small portion of events, Low-man Friendly, Like Salvage was, or Nyzul, those events required less than 7 people.

The more i think about it the more i find myself looking away from alliance wide Content, Because the fun in that is usually hindered by the fact unless you were in a large LS, you were stuck shouting for people, and 99% of people found through Shoutting were garbage-tear turds who couldn't find their job ability menu without you holding their hand through the process. So what should be a rewarding, challenging, alliance fight becomes a tedious wading through hell with 17 people who couldn't co-operate their way out of a swimming pool, let alone do an event reasonably.

But i'm getting ahead of myself. I as much as most people look forward to out-of-Abyssea content, I loved abyssea to death, But I'm not sad its over, I was happy to be along for the ride.

This is all of course my point of view, and might not mirror opinions of other "Pro-abyssea" People.
