Becoming a "real person" in FFXIV.

[Eightbit]

I agree with you premise but I agree with SE doing it. Let's just h ave a look around the forums and see how many people are listed as below 50. It does not take absorbent amounts of time to reach 50. Sure a few get lost in crafting and gathering or leveling multiple alts, but I'd say they are the minority. I'd also like to point out the amount of content below 50, for your first time, greatly outweighs that at 50. Thus there is a need for more at cap. Fact is SE botched endgame. Coil ended up falling short of their unbeatable status they hoped for, outside that just farming runs, and I also think people ended up leveling too fast compared to the intended goal. This lack of content makes me happy to see events for capped players because it gives me hope they might actually add something of challenge or something new for us to do that is not just coil and WP.
