    One other small point,

    By forcing players to run to an aetheryte to obtain it, low level players would more easily understand the "progression" of the maps and camps. Like moving from quest hub to quest hub in many other MMOs, low level players would get a sense of moving farther and farther from town, experiencing stronger monsters as they level up, and provide a bit more "standard" MMO feel to FFXIV.

    Have new players "make the run to jeuno" so to speak. Get some friends together and run to the rank 30 camp because they all outleveld the rank 20 one.

    And so on to 50.

    In many MMO's "getting places" is most definitely considered content. The achievement of getting to Jeuno being one of the most memorable ones to date for me. Making the run from one city to another as a level 1, to play with a friend in WoW, being a close second.

    Discrediting the initial "run" to a place as "trivial" is a mistake imo.
