MMO on rails confirmed!

They are totally getting rid of xp parties? Not even making it an option? I would rather xp grind w/ horrible penalties involved than be forced to follow the linear quest formula. So can I have confirmation they are getting rid of xp parties? I do remember reading some crap about questing xp I just didn't think they were going to abolish our ability to choose.

See Rokien, this is what happens when you post your BS.

Sorry but they are getting rid of exp parties.

"Completing the quests, getting rewards, huge experience points, or completing a dungeon and getting experience points, that's going to be the key thing to level up your character, not like at the moment where you have to do monster camping or farming, that's not going to work in 2.0."

You get experience while in a party when you enter a dungeon. The possibilities!!!

So lobby game with little open world, with a linear quest system.

Ok, now put a disclaimer in that post also. They are not removing the ability to make an exp party. It has even been said that it will be an option in the group/content finder.

Unless you're an instance abolitionist, you can xp party inside dungeons. Yoshida also said he was going to make leveling content for different party sizes (specifically said that you won't be able to level up through just 1 aspect).

It's probably true. I read that killing quest mobs wouldnt give much exp while on the quest, and killing non exp mobs wouldnt give good exp either, and most exp comes from quest rewards. Hence, quest is most efficient and most practical way to level. I think they purposely designed it so only quest gives good exp. From what theyve said in translations anyway.

Sorry, I'm just a realist. I can play any single player game if I wanted to have a linear gameplay. Heck Morrowind has more adventure than 2.0
