You can still do the 1-50 content as a lv 50. Or since you'd have choice you could level normally, experience it all, then for the rest of your classes, opt them to 50, because why do the same thing 19 times over?Quote:

10-10-2011, 01:34 AMPreypacerReally! And why don't they just let us automatically win all the tougher fights just by showing up? I mean, having to fight Ifrit and possibly losing means you have to do it over... and that's such an annoying grind...Quote:

As usual, people are thinking only in terms of how it would benefit them in the short term, and not of how it could affect the game long-term.
What happens in practically every single MMORPG when the population levels off and not as many new people are playing? The game becomes top-heavy. What's the result of that? Lower level players complain of having not enough people to partake in content with, they get discouraged and leave.
What this "suggestion" is promoting is a similar outcome.
You might say "well if they want to do content with others, then they have the option to skip to level 50 also". But that's defeating the point... The point is, people who would like to do the tougher lower level content - without being PL'd through it - will have a tougher time of it due to a decreased low-level population.
What you're basically promoting is the potential increased frustration of future players, because some don't know how to to enjoy anything but level cap/end game in a MMORPG.
I know it's easier and more self-edifying to think in terms of solely what you want and what would benefit you and make the game better for you without regard for how what you want would affect many others who may not share your preferences.. However, please try to remember that you are playing with many others and that you do not speak for all of them. -

10-10-2011, 01:46 AMGramulAnd why stop there? Let's just have you win everything without having to move an inch! In fact, you don't even have to log on or play the game at all. The game has been entirely completed for you. You don't even have to be aware of the games existence.Quote:

If it's implemented in such a way that the ostensible purpose of it - friends and family able to group together without concern of level difference - but that can't be abused as a PL'ing system (the one currently in XIV due to the xp chain system is quite enough I think, considering how quickly people are packing on levels with it) - would be fine, in my opinion. -

Referring to the Original Post:
In moments like this one I'd like to have the "Dislike" button, to spam Enter on it... Probably this is the most funny idea that I heard from last October.
I just hope that all of you, people, are aware that the big work about balancing the game is still continuing. So if something NOW could appear strange or broken, it will probably be fixed or it's just caused by the fact that we played since now a totally different game. ( luckily the game is improving, even if a lot of stuffs should still be fixed )
Sorry for bad english. -
10-10-2011, 01:57 AMPreypacerlol I used to joke around about WoW... Saying that even if Blizzard implemented a "Win Instantly" button that automatically completed all content and gave all the best rewards, there would be people complaining that they had to press the button and it didn't happen automatically.Quote:

Once upon a time, the mere suggestion of this thread would have been seen as so unthinkable as to be ridiculous; who ever posted it would be considered either a troll, or paranoid.
Yet here we are.
Anyway... Yoshi's indicated his ideal time to reach 50 is about 3 months as I recall. So I think it's a non-argument anyway.
