The only thing thats saving it is the ability to hit 800-900% xp bonuses on preferred servers, so you actually get to the levels you have meaningful combat well before you actually "should" as determined by the MSQ (which is one reason I hate the gating the MSQ does).




Every? no. Theres a good number that will give you a full ability lineup within an hour or two of starting. Designers have realized you dont need 30, 40 or 50+ levels to get used to how skill combos on a long GCD work.

Even older games have revamped their low level experience so it isnt "press a button, stare off in the distance, press a button, pretend you're doing things". We arent in the early gen MMO's, and havent been for a long, long time.
I cant think of any that give you everything within an hour. How would they keep you coming back. If there is nothing to work for. I agree with the comment that MMOS all have basically the same low level experience.
