FFXI fixed!

It's that you "can't have it" because you're (general, not you specifically) not good enough to complete the content and earn the reward.

That's true of every single thing in the game.

Good game companies make it so that bad asses get the gear first, and then get to show boat it for a while before all the lame ducks catch up. Then when the masses start catching up, they add new shiny stuff for the bad asses to chase and repeat the process. That way every group is represented and has something to do.

He wants SE to create some magical event that is just hard enough that only people who play at a certain skill level can obtain the gear from it and he assumes that he is of that skill level. He is hoping they design something that most people will not be able to do at all and SE is attempting this. This is how we got to all this PD Zerg crap.

Basically, its not good enough for him to get every item in the game long before everyone else because he is better at the game than them. He wants to go a step further and make it so that those people can never get the items he has.

This is what we call greed.
