Solo and Open World Relevancy

[Gehena]

Well depending on what you are referring to: (in no particular order) FFXI, EQ, AC, SWG (pre-NGE). I would think UO and DAOC might qualify too. That's a few. Obviously more out there and depends on what you are wanting as to which would apply. The solo part depends on what you want to do. The problem lies in that MMOs are now really just instant gratification with glowy things and big numbers. The risk vs reward and immersion is significantly less than it was once. If it is too hard, it won't make money (comparedly speaking). Everyone needs their loot and they need it sooner rather than later.

Pretty much what this guy said. You're playing to work at Walmart.

I too would like some better open world content that requires teamwork. I can solo the lvl58 Large 10-leve-allowance leves on my gimp lvl 52 BRD... I thought those were supposed to be group leves for us to do like in 1.0. I actually miss doing a bunch of leves with the LS.

[MilesSaintboroguh]

Large scale leves weren't made for parties. They're just normal levels with mobs getting more spongy.

[Nektulos-Tuor]

Nope, open world because useless after level 59.

MMOs are not really made to last these days. You want a modern example of how a game is made to last: Play Adventure Mode (Diablo) Seasonal.

I'd love to have a relevant open world PvP zone with meaningful risk vs. reward mechanics in play. It won't happen because FFXIV isn't the type of game to have open world content beyond simplistic questing and gathering.

I want SWG style pvp where its Opt-in but happens anywhere in the world. However it wouldn't work in this game. There are no two factions. less we can play garleans

Can we get some relevant open world content?

gathering, treasure maps , NMs (3.1 )

Can we get some solo content?

gathering, solo treasure maps

Can we get anything to break away from the current weekly cap monotony?

treasure maps, NMs (3.1), fishing

so im assuming you also like counting leaves to pass your time at walmart?

[Sapphic]

My idea is expand on the Leve system and start to add max level ones that scale in difficulty and, of course rewards, from solo upto raid difficulty.

Would be fun partaking in or just coming across a party battling a raid difficulty Leve and spectating.

you've clearly never experienced a good mmo

name it please. you obviously THINK you have one in mind that matches. And no, FFXI isn't it.
