There ARE people who don't mind, or even enjoy Leves, you know.

But yes, I'm glad they're adding more options, instead of taking options away. I like the Leve system, but it was a drag to have it be the only means of solo leveling. Now I can do various things to level out several classes and enjoy my exploration a bit more.

So yes, Glad they are keeping leves, glad they are adding more - that's perceptively what they should be doing.

There are very very very few occurrences in which removing or reducing something is the smart choice for the development of a MMO. And often more playable options is better for the overall game, as you're adding more diversified content and more playability.

If you don't like Leves, skip-em. I'll do leves AND the quests and have a better time for it.
