also thats dumb D: it perpetuates the stereotype all MMO players are basement dwelling D&D Fanboys ;;

But Its okay :P. Its always good to go with something Familiar.

I only played DandD for a little while when I lived in a town of 14-16 thousand people (depending on how you counted people who lived within two hours of city centre) - it was something to do... besides drink and play XI (both of which I also did).

I can't Blame you, I still enjoy Yu-Gi-Oh Cards and Pokemon Games :O

It's paying homage to the roots of all computer roleplaying games, and D&D is a lot of fun anyway, everyone should try it at least once!

I did try it once Actually, a friend brought the whole spread-sheet things. I have active imagination, But I like being able to touch and see things. But I'm not everyone

Making abyssea 65+ wouldn't in no way shape or form help low leveling 30+, it was all but dead before abyssea. There was the bump when SE told us they were going to up the level cap but that died when most of the player base hit 49. If they made it 65+ people would snm burn up any new jobs they wanted or more likely not bother to level a new job so effect doing nothing for people 30+ wanting to level the old way.

Your double negative saved you from being wrong about something that should be very obvious to anyone.

While raising the cap on Abyssea (I say 76+ would be more fitting) would obviously create a much larger population of players intending to form traditional EXP parties for jobs under the cap, it would not do enough to fix the problem entirely. There need to be more incentives, too. The EXP boost was a step in the right direction.

Every job I've leached in abyssea I would not have leveled if not for abyssea leaching and I'm pretty sure the same could be said of 95% of the people who currently leach in abyssea.

For me to choose to level outside Abyssea, they'd need to add more xp, more mobs, atma to kill them faster and make me more uber, gil rewards or something I can turn into it like cruor, confluxes to get to camp quickly, a chest and light system or something else to think about besides killing stuff, temp items, chances at decent armor drops, and the list goes on. Given that, I'd gladly choose other areas just for a change of scenery and sense of nostalgia. In fact, I actually hope they do do this. Barring a similar set of enhancements, however, I'd choose Abyssea still for the same reasons I got bored of the 1-75 grind about 6 years ago.
