More Horizontal Progression please

I continues to sound like you don't want an MMO at all.

The leveling grind is fun for a good bulk of us. I don't know about you, but I came into this game expecting and ready for a much longer grind to cap. This games grind is pretty short and sweet in comparison to others. It's a fun way for you to learn the in and outs of your current class. I for one enjoyed the MSQ. It leveled me a bit and gave me a good story to go with my character. I can't comment on PvP as it just doesn't excite me in any way so I don't participate. The tokens in Alex are debateable. It's a good idea, but it was implemented in a way that is rather wonky.

Not really. In other games you are able to "Power" through this content and doing it more makes it easier. So it doesn't feel like a chore.

Grinding Tokens usually gets easier and easier the more powerful you are. However the issue is the power curve is so low that you don't gain that much power from new gear.. so its hard.

Leveling is usually easier, because in other games you can have friends powerlevel you. Not in this game. I am glad you find it fun. I find it completely useless, mindless and tedious and wish they remove all levels from MMOs. All levels do is make content invalid.

PvP Ranks, just a mindless grind. People trade wins/losses for this all the time with Parties.

MSQ, Cool story. However, when you have to do it again and again with every character its tedious and loses all fun and color.

It may be shorter or faster yes. However its not nearly as fun as pulling tons of monsters and destroying them. Unfortunately they nerfed DD.

It's a fun way for you to learn the in and outs of your current class.

I'm sorry, but 99% of everyone does fates. Which teaches you to spam AOEs.. You would learn your class better if you were challenged at lower levels. Pulling tons of monsters and room clearing is actually challenging, grinding 99999999999999999999999999 fates because its the only good way to gain experience is not challenging. Its completely mindless and zergy.
