    So your point is?

    Cause my point is, XI gives me lots to do lowman and solo... things that are rewarding - unlike getting 80 of the 45,000 SP I need to level. That is not rewarding. It is ridiculous.
    Before the level cap raise, there wasn't a whole lot that you could solo and even then, you could only do it with a select few jobs with specific gear, specific stats and specific macros. Again, FFXIV is much much much easier to level in and much faster, if you do it correctly, compared to correctly leveling in FFXI. Remember those leve exploits you mentioned about 14? Yeah, there was an "exploit," as you claim, in XI called summoner burns which is probably what you did to get your levels.

    I never did a summoner burn. I stopped playing XI way back when it sucked and was grindy. I came back when they made it fun. I did clearly state above that I solo/duoed my levels, but, it is cool if you would rather just blindly attack me versus actually reading my posts.

    Campaign, Fields of Valour, and not to mention Level sync making it a joke to find others to play with.

    All at 75 cap, and this was in 2007-2008.

    yes and? It still took much longer to level compared to FFXIV and this was also around the time of summoner burn.

    @ LuxLex: So you quit when it required skill...and came back when everything was dumbed down and FFXI lost over half of it's subscription base? Alright...that's fine, honestly, because I was one of those that quit with the release of Abyssea...but it's fine, you obviously won't last in this game, despite it STILL being easier than FFXI.

    lol you still don't understand anything. I leveled all of my 75s, aside from Cor, to 75 before ToAU so I wasn't one of those that sat around spamming piercing skills on Colibri. Blm I solo/duod to 75. Problem? Honestly though, if FFXIV is too hard for you, which I laugh at you if it is, then you have every right to get off of the forums, quit the game, and go play something that is more on your level..like..Hello Kitty Online.

    Hello kitty online is very grindy actually, and I have a life so I don't like grindy games. I want XIV to survive, which it won't if players like you who think slow and boring is "hard" get their way.

    grindy? Dude...you..just...ugh have you EVER played a RPG? Seriously...RPGs aren't meant to hit max level in a day. Aside from exploiting on FFXI (which people still do, yes..people DO still summoner burn) there is no way to hit max level in a day. Why you think that you are entitled to not have to work for your stuff is beyond me. "Oh hai, SE, I want max level, max gear, no work, I can has, yes?" NO! This game isn't grindy at all. It is EASIER TO LEVEL COMPARED TO ALMOST EVERY GAME ON THE MARKET and you STILL think that it is grindy. You can hit max level in FFXIV faster than you can on COD...that's sad...and if you think Hello Kitty Online is a grind..wow dude..you're terrible. Go play Allods. THAT is a grind. You're r33 after 6 months? Go play a different game since this one is obviously too difficult for you.
