Horizontal progression? In MY theme park?!

it keeps old content relevant and that makes people feel like there's more to do. i don't particularly care for it but usually it does do that.

The content is grindy enough, why do you want to keep it relevant for longer? lol

People already complain about having to run older dungeons for roulette... do you think people still want to be raiding Bahamut's Coil for gear that is still relevant today? Some people raid it for S&G or roulette bonuses, but not for the drops. Do you think it's healthy to force people to continue raiding it for the rest of the game's lifespan?

Because there are new players joining all the time. The idea of unsynced content, grind nerfs and other methods of making old content completely faceroll (to the point where some bosses can be killed before their first mechanic) is unpleasant if you are just reaching those pieces of content for the first time. Grinds I understand to a certain extent, but unsync is a really bad system that has unfortunately become baseline in the game. There needs to be some sort of control over it so that the content is at least still content rather than a few hits and instant rewards.

The same can be said about poor level sync (particularly on content early into an expansion cycle), but thats a whole other issue.
