MMO on rails confirmed!

[Sephrick]

that's the very least is what I'm asking for

If you spent half as much time grinding in the open world in v1 as you do grinding your post count you'd have everything to 50 and not need to worry about what leveling will be like five months from now.

Yoshida has said that the best way to level is to do a little bit of everything. Doing only quests will be as inefficient as doing only open world grinding. You're just blowing things out of proportion as usual.

If "mmo on rails" makes Rokien leave FFXIV in 2.0... it's the best thing Yoshi-P has done since taking over. Miracle if you ask me....

But I know better, Rokien is so emotionally invested in FFXIV that regardless of what is released or not, or the nature of 2.0, he will be playing. He will also continue to post threads in these forums like he's done for 2 years.

Truth be told, he's not creating topics of conversation, he's just seeking attention..... with that said.. i will no longer contribute to his 15 minutes of fame...

Last time I'm posting in a Rokien created thread.

Zell pretty much summed it up.

Hello again, it's me Rokien! So with Reinheart's translation, my initial worry was correct!

"Yes, when you first reach a area by following the “!” (Exclamation mark) it leads to another ! We are currently making those links."

So like...almost any other RPG ever?

You have a storyline to follow that brings you to differents places. What FF XIV is doing is not to have a break in the main scenario quests. Very different from the "you need to lvl up 25 levels in some other place before you can do the next quest!". People who wants to enjoy the story without any break can do it, and people who dosn't can also do it since now we have a vast world to explore and probably sidequests and other content.

Exactly as a lot of other games tell you to go here but you can sidetrack to do other things. As always your shitty design choices alianate the preferences of a lot of players, while the current one acomodates almost any type of player except you and some more.

Nah, I don't want all classes 50, I only leveled the ones I like, why would I level something I don't like?

I've said many times I'll be playing 2.0 for a while. Though probably not the 9 years I did like ffxi.

Then what do you care? If you're done leveling, it doesn't affect you anyway.

But the fact remains that, as usual, you're making mountains out of mole hills. Yoshida said the most effective way to level will be to mix it up. Not to spam one kind of content alone.

[KaplanHomahru]

Oh no! This means you'll have to quit the game and stop posting on the forums! So saaaaad

I apologize for being dramatic, I will have faith and wait for 2.0, then I will judge.
