seriously, they can't make 100s of interesting quests, make them engaging, fun,and epic. That is going to be impossible. Why not make fun enjoyable quests (not 100s every update) that make you want to do em. Instead of, I have to do em because game tells me to.

I don't believe anyone is putting a gun to your head and forcing you to do quests. You're more than welcome to go out into the world and whack away at marmots all you want. The EXP may not be as good, but if you're this uptight about the whole thing, I'm sure you're willing to sacrifice a few EXP to not be pulled into something you don't want to do.

Solo friendly?

Quest based levelling system that tells a story, more than likely based around central hubs?

Not having to run back to town every time you use up your 4-8 leves?

Instanced dungeons so you don't have to worry about other people camping your favorite spot?

Oh god...these are all horrible things. How dare you, SE, try to make your game appealing to casuals, er go getting more subscriptions, er go getting more money to put back into the game.

Shame on you.

(Also, Getting PL'd to 40 then Natalan to 50 isn't partying/camping, it's the most boring thing on the planet. The level grind shouldn't be that mind numbing.)

I don't think anyone considers Stronghold burns or AOE facerolls to be "exp parties".

I've yet to meet anyone who legitimately enjoys low level XP Parties. Anyone that says otherwise is just "Yearning for the old days like XI was." It's an outdated ideology, and just needs to go in order for FFXIV to grow from a business standpoint.

I did when you had 15 people killing a crab that took a few minutes to kill, that was fun.

As it stands mobs in general aren't really designed for "Exp" party setups they die quick, are generally boring, and only efficiently killed in massive groups.

No wonder nodody likes them as it is. I don't think that's what people are asking for. Business standpoint can go where the sun doesn't shine as far I am concerned. I want the game to be fun for me, I don't really care what John Doe sais about the game he can say his peice and I will say mine.

At the end of the day it's up to the developers but it wont stop me from voicing my concern because I'm sure they enjoy my money as much as the next guy...you know from a "Business standpoint".

Players on the forums need to stop acting like we know whats good for business, I'm not even certain why the hell we should care what will "Attract the most subscriptions!" We on the forums should be voicing our opinions on what we would find fun, not what we think would be appealing.
