    I really love the direction they're taking with this game. It gives everyone a chance. It's coming from someone who has his character fully decked in 90s (even Allagan weapon) and the hardcore players still enjoy what they like best: Doing the cool stuff before everyone does it.

    But they also let lower level players join in the fun eventually. I think if any game'll succeed this one will.. I'm sure people who think their time spent on being the best have been wasted will leave (hell, 3 from my static has said they'll quit over this), but on the other hand this will attract new people. New players= fresh life to the game, more subs.. And those new people aren't missing out on anything, because of the lockout removal.

    Wait, what? A hardcore player that can actually look at content growth and vertical progression in a logical manner without wanting to fundamentally change the entire game? What is this i don't even--*head explodes*

    * The sad thing is that FFXIV turned RDM into a turret, and people think that's what it's supposed to be. It's supposed to combine sword and magic into something more, not spend the bulk of gameplay spamming spells and jump into melee for only 3 GCDs before scurrying back to the back line like good little casters.

    Pretty much everyone looks at it logically - The problem is some won't accept any point of view of unless they personally agree with it.

    Wharrgarbling about their "hard work" in a game isn't logical. We haven't devolved to the level of screaming welfare epics yet, but that would be the next step in that mental decline.

    Each turn will have it's own entry in the Duty Finder and can be completed in any order with no restrictions.

    Loot however is still up in the air. I suspect they will have a 1 item lockout per turn.

    I've received mixed responses from this, but most are happy that lockouts are removed. But usually the most elite of the most elite would say something along the lines of "So we've spent our time being the best, keeping up to be the best for nothing? gg se"
    Now, if that situation actually happened in the real world.. I'm thinking stuff like internet. You used to pay $100 a month for dial up and now your kids get fiber optic with half the price? I've wasted 10 years of my life!

    Then again, i kind of understand the feeling of those who has tried their best just to sort of "keep up", because I try to do that too. Winning new bosses within 1 week of release, not missing out on loot of any kind.. hard world eh

    Mixed responses from friends and FC mates, some love it, some hate it. But hey, the more accessible it is, the more players that will get to experience it. The only thing I'm wondering about is T3, I have a feeling the Q's for that is gonna be extremely low. lol.

    Yoshida mentioned that there will be no progression saved anymore so you can just select any turn and run it, so it would be pretty much abandoned and no one will need to run it anymore.

    Don't know why anyone would complain, it was obvious this would happen from the start because Yoshi said, "We'll nerf old content as new content comes out."

    Now it will be easy to farm i90 but that'll mean nothing when the new Turns have like i100.
