Pace of Leveling:

I feel the pace is "alright" it does seem a tad bit fast to get from point A to point B, A tad bit slower not to much would make it just right. Powerleveling concerns: I feel as if Powerleveling is in All forms now Healing " DDing etc". Even the Occasional "PL Gathers mobs> PL Disbands>PL Kills> Party gets EXP> Party does nothing"

Its like why play the game at all if the PLs are just going all the work for you. However, this is my opinion and im sharing it like the rest of the community is =). I feel that PLs should ONLY be in the form of Healing, not this DD kill everything Party does no work at all to get of them.. " Stupid Leechers!" :P

Aside from those two things that been bothering me ( but not affecting the way I play so ya guys do what ya want :P), the Pace of Leveling is right there were it should be, maybe a little tweak here and there).

Thoughts on FFXIV in It's Current State and Version 2.0:

1.21 Ushered in Jobs and 2 more instance Raids, with all that plus other things what were add in this patch, and the game itself, Current state= Playable. I'm very excited for 2.0 the Screenshots look amazing! The 7th Umbra Events that they are doing is Fantastic, and I love how Jobs are also tied into the Main story as well.

I can't wait for 2.0!!! and E3 is only 3 1/2 Months away!!! Yaaaaahoooooooo!
