Where is my level sync

[Engineer]

yes but still this IS another game !
lots of old ideas might still work and be fine but .... why not let the game develop and see where it goes as a new product and not as an improvement of xi.
imho

Your forgeting, Tanaka "tried" treated XIV as "another game". He didnt use any ideas that worked from previous mmo's, and look what happened, the game sucked lol

Yoshida takes the idea of things that worked and puts his own spin on it, making it unique, and look what happened,.... the game is fun..

This can be another game, but level sync is much needed for the Fun and XP factor.

Also just a friendly reminder, you dont have to use it, its an option.
