Power-leveling is absolutely BROKEN

[Destain]

TO summarize this entire thread:

WAAAA I DONT HAVE ANYONE TO PLAY WITH PENALIZE THOSE THAT DO SO I CAN ALSO HAVE FUN WAAAAAAAA

Winner.

Everyone can go at their own pace. Obviously the ability to drop out a level 50 and still get exp should be removed. Beyond that, meh. To each their own? How does it effect me if I duo to 50 and someone else pl's to 50. It doesn't. Since I got some classes to 50 before exp was put on steriods, should I be mad? No. It was and is my choice to play an incomplete game and I had fun doing it. We all knew changes would be made.

Just an opinion.

Its not a matter of how others level up. Its a matter of a living breathing world, game immersion, content and most of all: pacing.

Its not an issue of that at all, it's an issue of you wollowing in self-pitty because you either exhausted all your resources, or are incapable of obtaining them in the first place, the immersion and content are there from the start in an MMO, they're not given to you piece by piece, this is not a single-player story, therefor there is no pacing, which brings me back to square one, if you have nobody to play with, its your own damn fault, I will not suffer for it. or for that matter, if you have someone to play with, exhibit some damn self-control, if you don't want to get to 50 there is nobody forcing you to, i swear you are the same as those idiots that complain Anime is better than manga because hurrpacing, pacing is something you control yourself in an interactive medium, stop grasping at straws.

I tried being polite, so you can grab all your assumptions and shove them down your ass. Thanks.
You don't have the slightest idea of how anyone here fares in-game. So when making up all these stories you do nothing but look like a god damned idiot.

No one complained about having no one who to play with.

Try to drill into your thick skull: some (many, apparently) people actually want to enjoy the journey to 50 and not be doing end game at the beginning of the game.
FFXI delivered this. FFXIV does not.

Here's a secret: Pacing is always present. In every video game. It shouldn't be imposed by players, but by the game's DESIGNER. So people who suggest one should slow oneself down are giving terrible advise... one should play to their content.

Pacing is done with a leveling curve, prerequisites and quests. Which currently is so light it takes less than a week to get to end game, rendering all low level and mid level content useless.

God, no pacing? What a tool.
