AF+1 Costs WAY Too Much

[Joji]

A question for you people playing this MMO, do you plan playing this for more than 5 months?
If so, stop complaining. Not everything is time saving and convenient. Get used to it!
This coming from a Legacy player who started a new character and is by no means in any rush to get to the end quickly.
Because that's the thing with MMO's, there is no end.. really!

I had planned on playing for the long run, though this has me rethinking my decision. In order to 'finish' a single class, anyone with a job and a life has to spend 90-100% of their daily game time in a dungeon/LFP/DF, with little opportunity for working on subclasses, crafting, or community building. It's also a crapshoot for gil production unless you're taking the hit in stats to equip cheap white equips you can assimilate later for cash. So... that'll gimp a lot of players that decide to take time for gil farming when housing comes out as well.

So many people posting here seem to be blind to the fact that a) there's more to do in the game than grind Amdapor Keep, and b) (allegedly) there is more content forthcoming that isn't even dungeon-based (i.e., housing, PvP Frontline, etc.).

I would turn the question to you, then, and ask: do you plan on only playing until you get your equips, then quit? If so, what was the point of getting them in the first place? Do you have so little imagination that you can't play an MMO unless you're spoon fed progression? Because that's the thing with MMO's there is no end.. really! Unless.. you QQ once you get your end gear, that is.

I believe that all the casual players who has been whining from day 1 (the majority) to put more content, easier and more convenient systems in place in order for this game to succeed doesn't really know what they want because they now play the role of what they claim they wasn't. Which is hardcore rushing gamers.

Man, I'm 1 month into the game soon, I have been here since the dawn of this game.
I stick with it even though SE went for the WOW model, this doesn't mean I don't have a patience meter. But this constant mass whining once something grand takes time really makes me wonder, what the hell are you even doing playing an MMO if you sit there and calculate how long time it takes.
