This is true.

This game really advertises the whole "Wow, people are so nice and helpful," idea because you have a lot of people doing really small acts of kindness to sprouts. I don't want to call that nothing but it's really easy to sit there and hand out minions/potions or even gil to sprouts.

Then once you stop being a sprout all of that stops and people only really started being nice again once I became an omin full crown mentor. Then it became "Oh, there's an omni mentor without a FC. Join mine?" or "Can you craft something for me?" or "Hey have you ever tried current ex/sv? We'll pick your job and you can join us."

Or even with stuff like Eureka where I recently got to max level in Pagos. I can't run around in Anemos/Pagos anymore for my weekly challenges without being spammed with party invites. Where was all of that when I was levelling?

People only care when you benefit them :x
