    Thats why there's also FATE's and dungeons. You don't learn a job by questing to cap.

    I am so tired of those people, if you want like a shit ton of quests, go play shitty WoW or something like that. This is FF and it will stay FF, look at FFXI, it barely had any quests. I won't miss you, sry

    so 2013 means the game should have more quests?

    Look the game was just simply not designed to spam quests in your face.. If you want to do just quests to level, you need to look for them. You just can't go from one npc to another in the same area and expect it to give you what you want.. TRY a new area if you want fresh quests.

    No. It means that there's some amazing competition that doesn't make you struggle to figure out how to level up and continue your progression. Progression is like...a currency of its own. You want players to always be feeling like they're progressing, even if its incremental.

    Cardinal Rule: Never make your players feel like you're deliberately wasting their time. Especially when you are wasting their time.

    Never do this. Never. Never, ever, ever.

    if you do, you will die and be forgotten, and nobody in the MMO industry will mourn your passing.

    Agreeance

    Freaking boring as all .... to run around waiting for a dungeon cue, waiting for a primal kill cue, waiting for a fate spawn, waiting, waiting, waiting. When you frist play, you get to do all that mixed up, you quest and a fate pops up so you do it. You quest and a new cue challenge comes up so you cue and quest. You quest and then a leve comes along so you do it. At 20, bam all quest gone so while you wait for 1-2 hour cues to push storyline so you get more quest you chase fates (boring after 5 min) you already ran out leve allowances, so cant do them. Boring Boring Boring. I absolutely LOVE what's in, but it is way too gated and at 47 fate grinding to 49 is horribly boring. 1 million xp + to get through it and a fate every 5 min or so for at max 12k xp. I did get 2 dungeons for 250k xp, one group sucked (after 1 1/2 hour wait) and the other was only 34 dungeon) BORING, make quests!

    You don't learn a job by fate grinding either. You learn how to stand there and stare at scenery, charge forth, spam an AoE, charge back. Lather/rinse/repeat hundreds of times.

    Dungeons? Dungeons are good, but not viable to level by. DPS queues can be hours and hours long; what should you do in those hours, Optimus? Stuff you don't want to do? Level something you'd already be playing if that's what you wanted to be doing?

    No. They can add more quests and make their core leveling game competitive with the competition.
