    There is absolutely everything wrong with instant gratification. The rewards are far less fulfilling for one. Anything 'worth' having is worth putting in the work to get it. If you don't enjoy something, don't do it. That being said. I would much rather have it take time and work to get to something I really want and can be proud of.

    5 minute grind to 50 with full af+1 gear? meh, I'll be like yea, so what.. Netflix time. Spend a lot of time and hard working getting something that is very hard to get? I can sit back and say yea, I did that, and feel accomplished. People these days with wanting everything now.. McDonalds attitude I call it. Makes it so that you have stuff (not just in a game) that you don't care about and don't appreciate.

    Learn to work hard for something and you'll learn to appreciate it all the more. The feeling of accomplishment after reaching that goal that is super hard is crazy satisfying.

    :tldr: learn to work hard and really truly appreciate the stuff that comes along with it instead of slamming your fist down and saying "I WANT IT NAO!!!".

    It's about working hard to get to a goal. don't like it? don't do it. Get over the fact that you have to actually work in a game to get to something you want. Every MMO game is like this, stop acting like it's something new SE did. Go play EQ1 back in 99 and try camping a contested mob, for days, and standing in a line, for days, waiting for your CHANCE to kill a mob that spawned once a week to get an item.

    Ohh noes, not my MMO! The point of my life is lost.
    Exactly the type of response I expected from someone acting like an teenager whom feels entitled and can't have what everyone else has worked so hard for "RiTE NAO!!"
