I'm going to respectfully disagree with the points here. Not that they need not to include more options, but more that they need to be cautious while doing so. I do have to move away form my computer now so I can't expand on that as I would like. But it boils down to this: We already have a wide variety of content, but everyone still feels content starved. The wider we go, the bigger that problem becomes. A way to resolve that is to keep content accessible by the masses. Right now, indications show that more difficult content, like Savage Alexander, is not.

When implementing more options, especially when requiring more investment, I feel as if they need to be careful not to alienate other players. I do not feel as if FFXI can be an appropriate parallel to draw in this, for a myriad of reasons.
