Power-leveling is absolutely BROKEN

[Travesty]

Ok Issac lets see some data not just your opinion, list 1 game that went to shit due to power leveling? Here ill name 3 that are doing great with Power-leveling as an option: World of warcraft burning crusade, lich king, cata.... lol i know this is not Wow... but wow has crazy powerleveling that costs real money.. and its doing fine, and has been for years. So my challenge to you ISSAC and co. list 1 Triple A game that went to shit due to power leveling. Yeah you can't can you?

You know why he won't be able to name them? Cause developers are typically not dumb enough to create a method where someone can reach the cap in a matter of hours, particularly as early in the life of the game as FFXIV is. It might be possible to get there pretty fast in WoW now, but it's an extremely well established, old game, with a huge majority of casual players. The situations are very different.

Now I'll ask you a question. List 1 MMO period with power leveling as extreme as is possible in XIV now. WoW's is not.

City of Heroes.

QFT

and IMO City of Heroes also has the best experience point / leveling system in an MMO I have ever played.

can't even call that a real MMO just saying.

It is Massive, Multiplayer and Online. It has a leveling progression from initial to max level, it has equipment, it has powers/abilities/spells, it has a virtual world, it has signature characters, it has its' own comic books, it has its' own music ... people pay to play it (unlike this game).

Define "MMO" as you are using it. C'mon. I won't laugh. Much. Probably. I will poke holes in it.
