SE enough of the treadmill, please make the game more interesting!

Adding horizontal gear progression to learn different abilities and enhanced abilities is a horrible idea. SE should add horizontal character progression instead.

Wait... What's the difference?

I can grind EXP on mobs while at the level cap for Merit Points (to copy XI) to learn new stuff, or I can grind EXP on mobs while at the level cap to Spiritbond gear (to copy IX) to learn new stuff.

So... Gear actually having a purpose in this game is a horrible idea? OK then...

But...that's...exactly what horizontal character progression is.
