EC explains how the current progression system is flawed

[SinisterJointss]

Need to go back to EQ/FFXI design. Those games kept players playing for well over 10 years. I didn't play XI as much but in EQ it was well out of the norm to run into someone who didn't start playing in the 1999-2002 era and still play in 2012-2015.

I never ran out of relevant content to do to progress my character.

These days the system is "Oh you are ready for raid content? Welp bad news anything NOT raid content is basically 100% worthless to you." EQ/XI even raiders needed to do group content.

I played EQ for 11ish years. Miss that game, too bad no other company would attempt to make a game as in depth as EQ
