I don't think we need 10 new levels next expansion. Please spend the time updating all existing content and adding new various content. Level 70 is a good spot for awhile.

They have no choice. This is a vertical MMO. If the verticality stops, it dies.
pretty sure we will see level increase.. altho it depends on the nature of the expansion.
out stat depends mostly on gear iLevel, which is locked behind Level that is also locked behind expansion.
unless SE figure out a way to prevent players with SB to purchase and equip crafted Lv70 Ilv900 gears.. we will prob see level increase every expansion.. which is annoying because they means our skills will get tossed up AGAIN every expansion.

YEP!
In vertical progression MMORPG you always get new stuff better than the old one. And devs in those system try to force this way (like the post 4.0 changes to tank jewelry because some people used old one, other example would be WoW side, with legion, they did some change in stat weight to force people to focus more ilvl than stats. )
So, yes, we could get more ilvl in 5.0+ but no more level.
But they will add more area. and MSQ/Side Quest. If we dont gain levels with those quest, it would be frustrating to do those, for people who dislikes stories.
Other thing. FFXIV is a game where... we have hard time to find what to do. i mean, half july i already had the 4 weapons i wanted on Susano, the jewelry on lakshmi... what more? Daily dongeon, weekly omega. Some people would had 3 x 2-3h on sadic mode. Aaaaaannd... thats all?
What you do so? leveling more. craft classes, collect classes, more jobs.
getting 10 more level is a good way for developpers to add some playtime to their player, and so, less boring effect (and so the "i should stop my sub" and finally "doest next expansion deserve my money?")
Last reason they will add 10 more levels => Lets get your class instant to lvl 70 with our 23 euros book!
Except the money question, is those 10 level a bad thing? not so sure. But mainly, it is directly implied with vertical progression.
I dont have matter to staying lvl 70 for the 10 next years, getting ilvl 1000 in the same level than the ilvl 300. But, i would look strange.
I'd personally be fine with 5 levels.
75 is a nice number.
More open world content at end game. Give people people an incentive to get out in the world and work together, make it feel like a living breathing world once you finish the MSQ.
Ninja clone jutsu! Have some ideas for it
1.a clone jutsu which can be an aoe attack that has clones up to 7 clones do single target damage to their 7 different targets for 10 seconds. If there are less than seven targets, clones will start stacking on enemies to do more damage. i.e 1 target = 7 clones attacking it. Potency on each clone should thus be 90.
1.b or it is a stationary jutsu-don't move- and the clones appear around you to copy your mudra and execute ninjutsu causing an aoe version of your ninjutsu .(can not be used with tenchijin.)
Examples:
- raiton: It'll look like those Aoe raitons from the Job quest
-suiton: New aoe animation for the jutsu.
- doton: slightly larger and placeable like SMN lvl 50 skill
-katon: more intense fire explosion. + burning debuff.
-Hyoton: binds all enemies in a large circle of ice. + frost debuff
-Huton: doubles the huton length from 70 to 140 seconds
- fuma: All clones throw the fuma shuriken for double potency aoe line
I wish next expension they would delete all casu account to stop the pf madness of people only coming to get PL.
I read an interview with Yoshi where he said that ideally there would be three more expansions. If we got 10 levels per expansion, that would leave us at level 100.
Problem is, how do you fit new abilities in 5 levels? 1 ability/ trait each level?
o_o

*facepalm*
Could you link it, i am interested...
Because of the way MMORPG are going (just watch the number of expansion for games like DAOC, or everquest...) it means The Square Enix Leaders are thinking already for the "after FFXIV" ...
I dont see why a developper would decide to stop a game from a genre made to stop when comunity is naturally fading... Or maybe he knows the way he does the game is not so good? ...
Only thing with that was WoW did that with Cataclysm and a lot of people disliked having a full expansion feeling like it was half the experience, it also caused Mists of Pandaria to basically have a ton of unused content since you hit 90 about 70% through the content.
I hope they figure that out, because we really don\\'t need more abilities. Honestly we dont even need all our abilities as it is. Job fixes and balances, sure. Its just a waste of development time to add these abilities, Imo. If they do go to 80, I wish they dont add abilities, just fix what we have. Monk has had only utility upgrades and had only one change to its rotation ( I miss you, touch of death, ;-;) and its still fun to play.
Even if they did let SB users equip the higher ilvl gear, it wouldnt matter much outside of glamour as they would just level sync the content anyway, and just block new content behind that wall.

The quote is
Of course that doesn’t mean the game will end only that Yoshida need at least two more expansions to finish his main story of FFXIV.Quote:
When I asked what else Yoshida had left to accomplish, he pointed to the story, a highlight of Final Fantasy 14. The intricate, ongoing plot is the main reason the fourteenth Final Fantasy is so appealing to those of us who don't love MMOs, and it's one thing that Yoshida wants to complete before he ever thinks about retiring. "There's this overarching story, and I've actually set a goal or endpoint for that arc," said Yoshida. "That's one of the things I want to accomplish is to be able to finish that narrative."
"How long will that be?" I asked.
"I think we'd need at least another two more expansions," Yoshida said.
I wanna suplex a ghost train.

That would leave six years with three expansions.Quote:
"I would like to continue operating Final Fantasy XIV for 10 years," he says. "That's the clear image I have in mind. Now that we've passed our fourth year, we're aiming for that 10-year mark. In terms of how many expansions we'd like to release, it's not clearly determined just yet but if the title is successful, it would be nice to release an expansion every two years or so. We're gradually making preparations to plan for future expansions.
I like that with 4.0 the skills were not tied to the class quests until the very last one at level 70. It means that I can just level each job from 60 to 70 and then do all the class quests at once and have the cohesive story without breaks. It also means I can use the new skills right away when I level up in a dungeon rather than waiting. Having the last one quest-locked also gives incentive for still doing the quests. I like it.
10 years seems more like a minimal goal when i read him. Lets hop it is just minimal goal,
Else, it would explain some things...
It's a goal for finishing this story. It's got nothing to do with the game itself. Once this story ends, we'll get a NEW story. Maybe travel to a different world, like Warriors of Darkness, and save THEM from the cataclysms?! There's quite a lot of potential stories to be had.
In terms of the 24 man raid gear/tome gear/pvp gear, etc. casters/healers being the same look but just recolored. Couldn't they shell out to design something more defining?
I wish the ivalice raid gear was at least dyeable if they can't design another look. *sigh*
Guild wars 2 tried not have lvl expansion didn't do well
It never says the game will end after those expansions... it's a rough estimate as to the timeline for the current msq and yoshidas retirement from the game... AT LEAST 2 MORE... level 100 is a good stopping point for a class...hell by then we may be playing ffxx online... and it's not like lack of expansions has shut down ff11
Hope i hope we see intrudoction of rabbit people i wonder which culture the next expansion will be theme like
i hope native american would be awesome
