Level squish?

FFXI stopped at 99 and went to a master level system. EQ2 has done similar.

They won't squish levels, but they'll probably look into a way to make it easier for people to get from start to finish.

Master level system, job level system, and item level gear system in FFXI's endgame all calculate your level up past 99, they just do so invisibly. It is worked into the calculations of the game against mob levels that sit at 130+ that you would by no means be able to fight at 99 under any circumstance.

It still has a level system, you just don't level up anymore. You get your level ups from gear and extremely tiny master / job level increments at 99.
