30 hours or less?

[NefarioCall]

A grade topic there Rokien.
30 hours is like a good length offline RPG.
I hope it's ... well, ... that's a long intro before party play.
I like that Yoshi is considering how to keep new players,
but if the quests involved aren't ... more interesting than standard fetch quests,
then i doubt it will have the desired effect.

Because people generally treat your subjects as irrelevant due to your history of posting troll, irrelevant, facetious and repeat threads. Even if you are trying to be serious here, the damage is done. You have a reputation that's going to take a lot of posting like a normal person in order to undo.

Also, as long as your posts or topics are as relevant as this one, i will support your defiance of the hate... but bad albums are and always will be bad.

I'm hoping this marks a return to the ffxi-style of leveling, where you need well over a week to get a job to max level. I think 2 hour per level is a pretty good goal, meaning you need to spend 100 hours to get to 50. This would essentially be approx a month of play for a casual or 2 weeks of play for a hardcore.

good thread

I don't mind how long leveling up takes as long as:

a) There's things to do along the way
b) Level sync is implemented (although to be fair this might not be necessary with the ability to make multiple alts) and the high level members still get XP/spiritbond while under a level cap.
c) You'll be able to long on for a reasonable amount of time and get a level no matter what. 1-2 hrs for a level while solo is reasonable.

Powerleveling is fine to have IMO but the "have the high level gather mobs and kick them from party" needs to get removed.

Well what I like is little things you have to do while leveling so you have to break away from grind to go do whatever. Also ya, powerleveling is fine, ffxi was perfect because the party still had to do work, but ya the kick them is terrible.

30 hours is not that much time, specially for the people I know spend life and a half in this game.

I don't know this fellow Rokien very well, but I have noticed all he posts is whines and complaints about very shallow and inconsequential things that people tend to get used to with time.

30 hours isn't a lot of time, but 1-15, what game takes 30 hours to get to level 15?

Also idk where I'm complaining here....

I read Yoshi's reply as saying that there will be a lot of tutorial elements built into these early levels to learn the class and that's why they will take longer than currently. As long as that is masked in an interesting story that could be a very good idea. As far as the pace of leveling in general, 1,5-2 hours per level is about what it takes to level today using leves, 8-12 leves per level and about 10 minutes each what with some traveling needed to get new ones, and that always felt like a reasonable pace to me.

Any chance we can limit the number of threads one person is aloud to start to something like 1 a week?

30 hrs to get to lv 15 seriously if a new person comes to 14 and relize it took them that long to get only 15 lv's they would rage quit honstly do you want this lets say se wiped out our char and had to start over from the start do you want to spend all that time to get 15 levels and forget doing anything cool
