How about SE just send a relic, mythic, lvl90 empyrian to everyones delivery boxes for no work at all?

If I ever saw a MMO do this, I'd buy it in a heartbeat. The worst part of MMOs have always been the part where you have to spend hours, every week, doing things you don't want to do. All because some item drops from the activity.

Also you should consider your example in real life. If someone gave you a car for free, would you complain that you didn't get to work and earn the car, or would you be happy? Another good question is if you'd complain that you didn't earn the money for the car by working at a farm, LIKE THE GOOD OLD DAYs, and instead got the easy patched version where you worked in an office.

It all usually boils down to the same thing. You want bragging rights. You want to be able to say you spent 500 days playing FFXI and now got 20 jobs at 90. You want to say you got a relic weapon, that nobody else has. Any sane person would accept things for free as long as they'd have some enjoyment out of the item.

You are somone that has been spoiled by modern games that you can clock in 1 day and get everything in 2, also if you want everything given to you then you shouldnt play mmos, mmos are designed to take awhile, not so you can get everything in 1 month cancel your subscription then never play again. Any mmo that does this will die a fast death.

If SE can make it so it takes 2yrs to get somthing they will make alot more money than if you can get everything in 3 months and its somthing that keeps you playing.

Oh and if you check my ffxiah profile (same name as my display name here) you will see i dont have 20 jobs at lvl 90 and i dont have a relic, I just want the game to be a challenge and make me want to play, as i said before the only thing keeping me playing is the hope that some worthwhile endgame gets released this year, not an NM that will be killed it 5 seconds with the single worse item i have seen in a game.

if someone gave me a car free...the first question i'd ask is"WHAT'S WRONG WITH IT?!" and the same applies to FFXI as well i look at FFXI handing people free levels and crap and i go"WHAT'S WRONG WITH THIS GAME?!"
