I cried when I saw leveling in 1.19

This totally breaks the game. I had to work hard to get to 50, playing every night for at least 2 weeks and sometimes putting aside things I needed to do. One time I let the trash pile up and I didn't take the trash out for 2 weeks. My house smelled a little bad but it was worth it. Try eating pizza for 2 weeks straight while you have the thrill of being one of the first people to 50, or taking your second character to 50. Or taking vacation time to be one of the first to do something and now someone can just power level to 50 in a few nights. It completely breaks the sense of all that I've accomplished in this game. My life has sucked enough SE, please don't take away the one thing that has brought a little happiness to it.

I'm sorry your life has sucked, but we were warned that we were playing a game that was going to changed drastically. But the fact is, if you did already level a job or two to 50, then no one can take that achievement away from you.

You can tell all those whipper snappers out power leveling that "in my day, we had to earn our exp the hard way."

I don't know about you, but I'd rather have the thrill of having a clean apartment that I can invite people into without embarrassment and a healthy diet consisting of a variety of protein, vitamins, minerals and grains.

I don't want to play a game that requires me to glue myself to my computer for 10+ hours a day. I had enough of XI, that's why I stopped playing it. You want en Everquest/XI-like experience? I hear servers still are up for both those games. XIV was advertised as a casual-friendly MMO, and they're sticking to that vision as the prepare for a PS3 release.

obvious troll thread is obvious, I don't know why some of you are actually taking this at face value XD

2/10 for effort

You think you've seen it all in this forum and then this comes along...

[GreatLeviathan]

Maybe you should give out free hacks and stuff instead so they can get a lvl 50 account in 2 clicks ?
Delete the post already SE.

Why did you feel you had to include your life history to explain about leveling in a videogame? When you admit you didnt take out the trash for 2 weeks and let it smell up the place, you probably need some professional help to cut down on your addiction.

Being the first person in the world to reach max level is something I've never been fuzzed about. Its like seeing LotR/SW fans camping outside the cinema 2-6weeks to get tickets to see the movie before any others. But guess what, seeing the movie on releaseday or 1month later, it still provides the person who sees it for the first time the same experience.

When I got my first class to R50, I was happy. Did I care if others were 50s before me, no. I play my own game. And my Con was 50 before .19.

When FFXIV was announced I was very excited. I had been saving up money so I could afford to buy a good Alienware computer with a good graphics card to play it. I bought the Collector's Edition upon release.

I would cry too if I got something as shitty as alienware.

Looks like someone doesn't read the warning that pops up every time you start the game.

Hey! You do know that you still have the option to level up the "hard" way, remember?

[Dokuton-Razortaru]

Cool it breaks the game for 5% of players and makes it much better for 95%. Also Notice a lot more people playing? yeah i bet they will stick around when they can work on things like ifrit and actually play in the new high lv dungeons.
