Modern day leveling makes leveling a journey, not an obstacle.

You're moving around the world more than you would by just standing around grinding. On top of that, leveling has always been a hurdle to keep you striving for more. In Final Fantasy XI, having to level multiple jobs in a slow way was more of an obstacle than anything. Oh, I can't level my main class because I have to stop everything to level it's sub-class? OH BOY!
