Fighting Desperately...

[Crysten]

I am not. I am speaking for those who have shared the same frustrating experience I have. Are you not guilty of exactly the same? - professing your experience as an all-encompassing gospel?

If you wish to point out exactly where I'm saying my opinion is "the" opinion, go right ahead. I'm saying my experience was different to yours, therefore to generalize and put everyone into the same basket is a flawed basis for an argument.

Just because I portray a very different experience to yourself, it does not make my opinion any less valid.

And do you realize how much the promotion, proficiency and abuse of Powerleveling totally negates this design philosophy? As well, the sheer magnitude of EXP that stoods to be gained in the Strongholds at Lv40-50?

Anytime you wish to give me a reasonable counter argument to illustrate how this incapacitates your/anyone's ability to solo or party play your way to 50 if they so wish, as well as enter raids like Toto-rak during midgame, by all means let me know.

If shouts on Gungnir over the last week have been any indication, parties are formed all the time now.

Widespread appeal = more money, period. The fact that people that once played XI have grown is a moot point. Generations follow one another.

And this is a bad point because...?

SE does not give a crap about what you want. They give a crap about what makes them money, and WoW is currently "the way to make money." Do you follow the model with the currently stagnating game with around <300k subscribers or do you follow the model with the currently stagnating game with over 9 million subscribers?

If you say the former, you need to rethink what businesses actually do.

Nobody fed it to you. You fed yourself.

Right back at you concerning this game.

If the only thing people care about is killing NM's, running Dungeons and uber loot, then let's just start the game at Lv50. Screw the rest.

But...there is content for people on the way to 50 if people wish to do it.

Some people want to reach endgame in the shortest amount of time possible.

Some people wish to smell the roses, experience everything the game has to offer and take it slow.

This game actually strikes a pretty nice balance here at the moment.

Just because you seemingly have a problem with the former should not give you the right to impose the latter,

People have different opinions and wish to play the game their own way. What part of this do you not comprehend?
