    Still don't get how grinding on dodos in a field for 50 levels is more "hardcore," "intelligent," or "skillful" than story-driven content such as quests. Quests that actually give you interesting, varied tasks to do that directly involve you with the in-game world, the people of each area, their struggles, their history, and so on. So that each new area you explore means something more than "there's a really nice colibri camp over in this corner."

    "It was this way in FFXI, therefore it is the best way." This is what I hear from most of Rokien's threads.

    But if so many people love exp parties as you claim, then they will be willing to form parties regardless of lower exp, and if no one but you and a few others like them more than quest chaining, then I'd say it was a good decision on SE's part.

    All I hear is "The devs are doing this and I'm making a thread to complain about a system I have no info about".

    Quoted for being the most absolute truth in the entire universe.
    He is nothing more than a tool who expects everyone to share his "worries" that the dev team is full of idiots.



    Here's an idea Rokien, go make your own game.
