Why does the game really start at cap? I remember back in ffxi there was tons of stuff to do as you leveld. Things like eco-warrior, bcnm's, hunting rare nm's which were in every single zone, helping your nation control regions on the map. Plus as the game went on they added even more mid lvl content like the promy expantion which i think started at lvl 20.

The whole lvl 1-75 in ffxi was soooo much bigger than what we have from 1-50 in ffxiv.

I wish they wouldn't treat the leveling like a tuturiol.
