Thread: Please change 2.1 - 2.55 story and don't add a level potion or let people skip story

Do you think the problem lies with the branding of the game as a Final Fantasy title, with the expectations associated with that in terms of both quality and importance of of the story?

Did you know that The Black Shroud used to be filled with level 70 mobs before the Calamity? 1.0 players remember.)

Something I found when leveling on an alt: Not only are the new zones and new jobs locked behind MSQ, but so are the 51+ class abilities. So if you run up to 60 without doing the storyline, you're crippling your character because they don't have access to the new abilities that drastically altered the way each class plays. I assume the same will be with the run from level 61-70.

I could agree with this solution!!
