Daily limitations are much better than weekly limitations. You were also able to stock up multiple days, so you didn't have to log in every day if you didn't want to.

One such example from XI is Assault. It was 50 different missions. This lasted at least 50 days if you did every single mission once and won every time. Granted, they didn't release it all at once, but they did release it fairly quickly.

I'd take that over running the same two dungeons every day for 3 months any day.
Daily limitations certainly sound interesting. I haven't played XI, so I can't say whether I would like it's systems better or not, but I would be fine with the devs trying it.

I guess one thing that seems to bother others, but not me, is the complaint about too much repetition. Just from what I've read on this forum, I get the feeling that I must be a little odd. I enjoy running the same dungeons/trials/raids repeatedly because I like to practice my jobs and the fights until I feel I've mastered them. I actually looked forward to running Bismark EX and Ravana EX 99 times in a row. Repetition is not a negative thing to me since I go into every fight (even in the easiest content like dungeons) aiming to do better than the time before. Maybe I forgot to used sacred soil on the last run, or I didn't use my fairy's abilities as effectively as I could have. Stuff like that. Doing content that I know well helps me pay attention to the little things. But that's just me. I can understand why others don't feel the same way.
