How does Leveling work now?

Unfortunately, SE agreed, the previous team released abyssea contents, very casual friendly. Big success, very much loved, and one of the best battle content add ons ever to grace FFXI. Then the visionary director is moved to FF14, to make sure that version 2.0 will be casual friendly, and a surefire blockbuster when they relaunch. A lot is riding on the success of FF14 version 2.0. As much as SE trying to be "different", the landscape of gaming changed, BIG TIME, with the more casual friendly mobile gaming and social gaming. Just hoping they can strike a good balance. Not everyone wants to dedicated time and effort on gaming, most just want to log in, play, have fun, log out, no big deal, it's just a game.

At least FFXI now has options, for casual or dedicated (1500 heavy metal plates, you can have this). Now everyone is on the similar level of playing field, and everything is within reach, easy, and you can always get by with pick up groups. Legion, unfortunately also DOA, unless they are adjusting the content, even neo nyzul is in life support. The general players want fun enjoyable content with minimal fuss and headache, they want it now, they want it all
