Well, the game really comes to life at 50. All of a sudden knowing your job matters, then going at 60 (O.O). Difficulty begins to spike up from what your used to. Some people enjoy that spike, others not so much.

My friend feels the same way you do actually. He feel the 1-45 content is faceroll easy. But around the mid 50 story is when the real 'challenge' begins. You know people actually gotta move out of the orange circle XD Jk.
