    Putting in "EFFORT" does not mean turning in 100000000000 millioncorn just because it "UNLOCKS" the ability for me to PUT IN EFFORT into other things.

    Handouts, the silver platter, etc, other "freebies" as you claim, do not equate to accessibility. Accessibility means I can do things when I want to, when I want to, and however I want to. It doesn't mean I want a handout.

    A fame system, especially the one being used in XI, is a direct contradiction to accessibility. It is a BLOCK and a HINDRANCE that is completely unnecessary and simply prevents people from completing, and most of all EXPERIENCING content.

    XIV doesn't need restrictive content.
    Oh so what you are saying is that you are against any pre requirements. I bet you hate AV. You'd be opposed to lets say, areas such as sea and sky to be implemented on XIV too then.

    I'm tired of people thinking that playing this game, just playing, because its not even challenging, equals to effort and that anything that takes time doesn't.

    To become known by other NPCs through your deeds makes sense. It gives immersion. It gives a sense of accomplishment.

    Its not an outdated mechanic, its something that makes sense. FFXIV is a role playing game, not some knock the bottles game at a theme park. So play your role. You start from the bottom and you build yourself up into something.
