heh. this is nothing new. some people just level faster, and because of leveling faster they are - if they are interested in end-game - obviously also done with progression faster.


I for example LOVE progression raiding, but only after I'm done with the base game, and with that I mean that I'm absolutely the type of player that spends hours sitting in town chatting with people or just enjoying the scenery, or I keep dying because I am looking for a 'challenge' rather than the quickest way to level up (for example how many mobs I can take at once before I die. a habit that left me 'behind' back when games still had exp/downleveling penalties. playing carefully is just not my style :P)

I wouldn't worry about how others play too much, as long as the devs don't cater everything around them. considering that - against all the stink they got for it - the devs still decided to release a 'less difficult' than coil 1-5 version of the crystal tower and of course housing, I think the people who enjoy EVERYTHING about the game will be catered too, plenty.

I personally just hope that progression raiding won't be 'forgotten', but given the past of the company I'm not too concerned.
for now I'm getting my 'raiding fix' in other games and taking my time with the rest
