Leveling is way to fast...

I guess times changed and MMOs are not expected to be a grind anymore. I always thought that progress of the character is the main addicting factor in MMO, and that it should be enjoyed at least for a few weeks till you achieve the max lvl, but i guess nowadays kids just want to start the game with lvl50 char instead of enjoying the growth of it...
Well i guess its a personal choice of what to expect from a game, but me - I would like it to be challenging and would want to enjoy the feeling of the progress instead of capping instantly and spamming same instance over and over...

Which is funny... they want to quintessentially eliminate one "grind" just so they can get to another "grind" even quicker.

[sarcasm]But hey, so long as you can sugar-coat it and call it "endgame" or give it a bunch of quests, it can't really be a grind unlike leveling![/sarcasm]

I totally agreed with you, it's the main reason why I was enjoying FFXI.

I have to agree. Sure the grind was long and borring in some cases(same can be said with spaming dungeions and events) but at least their was a sense of "hey guys I hit 35!" and that was good reason to celebrate now its hey guys i hit 20, 2 hours later "hey guys i hit 35" 2 hours later, "hey guys I hit 45" 2 hours later "hey guys I'm Capped" one week later "all my jobs are 50, have done every dungeon in a pick up group, I am bored, gona go play Diablo ...." no, the game needs its long grind back, sure its not very casual friendly but that didnt stop 40k casual players from subscribing to xi.

AT LEAST I HAVE A LIFE NERD!

Always one in every thread LMFAO

Im sorry that wasnt ment to sound like a personal attack.

I didn't take it as one.

Of course, otherwise they'd have no life themselves. They just have to come around announcing the fact that they have a life, or else they die.

This argument is full of so many holes...I'm not sure if it's a troll or not
