All we can do, as a community, is put forth our ideas and our likes and dislikes, it's senseless to bash other people's ways of having fun or reasons they're playing the game.

I'm not having fun if I feel like progression is too slow.
I dislike storylines and cutscenes.

But I have never told anyone else that they need to skip cutscenes or storyline or that they have to do things my way to enjoy FFXI.
You ARE telling us, in a roundabout way, how we should play.You are telling the DEV team to change the game for you because you don't feel like putting in the time I have. I LIKE the fact that I am rewarded for doing missions. It gives me a sense of accomplishment, but you want to take that away from me. You want to negate my work by giving the same rewards to someone too lazy to do the missions. Sorry, but its nice that the people dedicated enough to do all the missions are rewarded. I also find it silly that people want to come into a game , over a decade after it starts, and expect to catch up with minimal effort in a short amount of time. I've been enjoying this game since NA release so yes, I have more boosts than you, I have access to everything in the game, and I have 500 billion voidstones saved up. Good news for you though: you can now accomplish the same things I have with almost no outside help and in a tiny fraction of the time. They have changed my experience more than enough to suit your desires.
