ARR: Leveling Curve

[Orophin]

Yoshi-P stated in an interview it should take a player brand new to the game somewhere around 30 hours to complete the entire set of tutorial quests (which I believe is levels 1-10). Current players should be able to go through it much faster I'd think.

Geez 30 hours to get from level 1-10? I know they changed the leveling in XIV 1.0 to allow for more solo play but I can get from level 1-10 in about 30 minutes. That seems like a GIANT modification to the curve they are making. Glad I'll be jumping in with my Level 50

I think its more the fact that it will be tutorial, if you go make a new character now from scratch, go through the current tutorial include leve quest tutorial, you will be up to almost 1hour just on that. You can get to 10 very easy, probably not 30 minutes as a brand new character following/reading a tutorial though. + Watching cutscenes.
