Thanks, Devs!

That's my point. The posts will be about novus/nexus taking too long now instead of atma. Making thing easier change absolutely nothing at all. People prefer complaining instead of putting time into stuff because they know soon or later the devs will spoonfeed them.

And don't even bring the "Casual have no time for this" card. I have a job, daily workout, i have to take care of my grandfather with cancer and i found the time to grind out my nexus.
There's a difference between not being able to do something and not wanting to do something. Making thing easier only encourage the lazy generation behaviors

Or that the content starts out as a wall for the gifted of time/ability/asking for a thrashing and then bends down for the those who are not, reaching the needs of multiple types of -paying- customers. Not everyone plays games because they want Demon Souls/FFXI, some people are content with a fast progression during the short time they spend. I think balancing both players at the same time is going to always create this both sides complaining at once effect, but I imagine it meets both in a way best for SE's pocket (meaning it can reach out to the most consumers). There is nothing wrong with a niche game, for those players that like the niche, but this isn't like FFXI - it isn't a niche game (FFXI is quite successful example of one though).

Also having strict time frames compounded and joining a game late really really sucks, speeding up the old stuff makes it so new people can join without starting their first mountain climb into the himalayas as everyone else shouts " you're going to die, you'll never make it up here - you should have joined the game 5 years ago" XD.
