Too easy!

Draylo, I'm getting an incredibly strong feeling of Deja vu.

The sad truth is that a some of the players who enjoyed the "time-consuming" and "difficult fights" of the past quit when the first Abyssea hit, and many more followed as more Abyssea zones were added. This much is apparent from the lack of end-game Linkshells that now exist, and those that do exist have shrunk simply because there's nothing you can't do with 2-3 people; and it's far more efficient to take on todays content with less people.

At this point, I don't feel it's even worth Square catering for players that enjoy the hardcore (read: time consuming and minimalistic drop rate) content; for the majority of those players have quit - and more quit each day.

As I stated in other threads of this nature - it shouldn't be about "this or that", it should have been about maintaining casual content AND hardcore content.

Then may I ask, why haven't you quit? There must be something about the new areas that you like then I assume? Maybe it is the fact that things are low-manable now? Less time it takes to get the finer gear? Please enlighten me, [Removed by Moderator according to the FINAL FANTASY XI FORUM Guidelines.] Seems that some people are pretty cranky that they can't be elitists and walk around with gear that without a large linkshell cannot be obtained. Personally I say HURRAY to the end of elitist end-game shells! They should have never existed in the first place!

If anything, SE will at least lessen the drama a bit by making this game a more level playing field for ALL players involved regardless of their linkshell affiliation. [Removed by Moderator according to the FINAL FANTASY XI FORUM Guidelines.] I love to lol.
