Content lock out system hinders returning players.

I'm leaning towards agreeing. Unless there's a better solution out there...

They did that with Garuda, Titan and Ifrit in regards to Levi and Moogle. I believe that they will probably do the same with Ramuh and remove the Levi/Moogle requirement once Shiva comes out.

I also believe that once the Third Coil comes out, they remove the T5 kill requirement for getting into T6 (Plus Echo for ScoB) ... They said they removed the requirement for Levi/Moogle because the original primals are all 'old content' or something like that.

But then is TCoB going to be gated by T9? I'm sure, like T5 when SCoB first hit, plenty of people will be doing it at first... but over time we'll run into the same problem. Newbies, returning players, etc etc will run into a wall trying to get up on current content, unless they're lucky enough to find someone to bring them in or give them a run. (Or have the gil for a merc run... possibly some would turn to RMT, a la T5 right now.)
