I took advantage of the game's returning week or two was it? I had played it long ago, but due to issues and failures I could never keep a character higher than 30. I had heard of the trusts and tentatively hoped they would help leveling. Then I was pleasantly surprised that I could actually beat the major story points. It took me over ten years or so, but I finally finished the original story. XD After all, there was barely anyone on the server I was on, so I knew right off the bat that without trusts I would be in trouble.

I do hope FFXIV's does well enough, there will come a time when population drops are going cause issues in low tier progression.
