More Horizontal Progression please

@Sandpark, those articles are incredibly biased.

As a side note, I'm here *because* it gives the "old days of wow" vibe, from before the atrocity that came post Cataclysm.

Going straight into an old school horizontal system is going to end up alienating most of this games' audience. People are already tired of Alexander, much like they were tired of CT and Coil, and wow players were tired of Seige for 14 months, and y'all want release content to be relevant/borderline mandatory for years?

Look, I don't care if the game is vertical or horizontal much. The main things I want is:
-All content to stay relevant and non trivial
-Gear to last longer than one patch before being tossed
-More variety of events
-More open world

If vertical can achieve that via Progression server,sidekick, level sync, or some other means, then vertical could work too.
I have yet to see one post besides maybe the EQ post even hinting remotely to that in a vertical based system.

I have fond memories of FFXI, but there is a middle ground between wanting to spend ten years to achieve things or in one or two patches.
