Double Exp weekends in FFXIV

[Dannythm]

Ugh... I really can't be bothered to look that up again. Iirc, the first was said in one of the interviews that came soon after 1.0's shutdown or in the live letter, while the latter I think it was on one of the interviews that followed Gamescom, where he said he didn't oppose to the concept of PLing since to him it was just another form of player interaction, so he was against removing it or something like that. I think both must be buried somewhere in Reinheart's translation thread.

I didn't found anything about that in the articles listed here (didn't re-read them, just searched level, PL and power in the English ones):

Well... to be honest, it's really not all that hard a thing to imagine anyway, considering the direction in which they're taking ARR ...

I don't think we can judge yet the direction they are going with ARR until we play the beta in a few weeks, and I think I understand where you are coming from but that they are mixing elements from many mmo's and refining old ideas while trying to keep it FF, like the addition of quests to help level (your first job and maybe 2, probably) and explore, and the other elements don't mean the game is going to be a piss easy rush to end game kind of game.

All depends on how they pace the content and the leveling curve, so if we cannot find the reference of Yoshi saying it will be as easy or easier to level up on ARR, well... I'm going to take as truth the old on where he confirmed that PL won't be in the game and that the leveling process will take a slower pace.

Edit: Would be nice if we could get a rep post about the pace of the leveling pace.

I'd actually like to know where and when did they say that.

For now I've found this link:

But this is about the old system, I'm going to check the letters from the producer see if it was there.

If anyone else knows he source of any information about PL in ARR please post it!
