2.55 Main Scenario Requirement.

[Rendecrow]

I like how this clown, he's funny. Totally missing the point that FF has always been story driven, that MMOs have gear treadmills and quest content. I bet he'd be one of the folks who would complain about the inclusion of average item level if he played back then.

He just ignores 99% of arguments against his point and chooses to focus on the 1% he can insult.

Ok, three things:

1. I like ilvl. Been playing with it for years. Don't just assume that I would complain about something.

2. How is saying the following an insult:

"Good luck doing it in only a few days or a weekend as a new player! O.o When I said the quest chain only takes 6 hours or so, that's assuming you have ilvl 90 gear. If you have to grind out the gear and do extra raids (like crystal tower) it very well could take weeks for someone to get ilvl 90 gear and clear the quest chain. Especially since not as many people will be playing the old content and queue times for dungeons and raids will go up. As a dps I already wait 10 to 15 minutes for trials, 20 minutes for raids, and sometimes 40 minutes for dungeons. Those queue times will probably double when no one is doing them...."

3. I have not been arguing for getting rid of all the story. I have been arguing for a smooth transition between levels 50 to 51 if you are a fresh, new player. When 30% of the story is crammed into that one level compared to 1.4% (on average) for each other level before 50, that does not seem very smooth to me.
