Why can't it always be like this?

That's one of the major issue of this game. End game player can barely be differenciated from casu apart their gameplay.

The function of the gear is pointless, the rate of acquisition is what keeps you at your chair week-to-week, capping tomes, getting better for whatever reason you personally may have.

The point remains: if you accomplish all of those goals in 1 month, Square is likely to miss $75 over the next 5 when you cancel your sub because you've reached your goals and have nothing to do until next release.

And this is why they missed 2 years of my sub during HW, i got tired of the daily/weekly garbage and just quit. I mean yes this is standard in MMOs but when you get done with your dailies for the day which take 1-3 hours and then your too burned out to play the rest of the content like crafting then why the hell am i playing? Just for dailies? I'd much rather spend ~6 hours out of one day of my choice out of the week for gear than 3 hours a day to get one or two pieces a week. Something has to change.

I wouldn't mind if the 'weekly cap' for tomes was a total cap that increased with each week...

Still maintains the same amount of time, but allows those who start later to eventually catch up to the week 1 starters.
