Cross-post Suggestions Thread for Official FFXIV Forums

I ended up reposting one of the points I made in my Guildleve thread (which was mostly ignored) as its own thread:

http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...ildleve-System


I don't even know if people see the current system as bad or if that's even considered a problem by most, though. Personally I hate having to do the same 3-4 leves over and over, every single reset.

I don't know where this is supposed to go, so I'm posting it here. While the servers were down, I played some Chinese ORPGs. Now the Chinese are quite fanatic to limiting online play from what I can see, so they implement one of two systems: 1. Give you a brief storm of activity for 1-2 hours, after which you just go chill, 2. There's a fatigue system. The fatigue system that I've encountered is interesting in that it's not tied to the amount of exp you gain, but the time you spend online. After around 8 hours online, you start getting reduced exp that eventually drops it down to 0 exp gained. However, 8 hours offline (what you need for a decent amount of sleep and to go eat or something) will allow you to gain exp as normal. While you are fatigued, the exp you gain goes into a surplus which gets released back to you at like .1% of the exp needed to get to the next level. This allows folks who like to grind and don't need sleep to continue leveling and not feel like they're being cheated, since sooner or later they'll reap the full benefits of their efforts instead of being flushed down the drain like SE does. This is what I think they should do with the fatigue system, since part of the reason people don't want to play is because they hear "surplus" and "fatigue" and go "fuck that shit". Calling it "bonus" exp doesn't change things, it's like calling a pile of fake dog poo "art" when all it is is fake dog poo.

They said they didn't want to reward people for playing into fatigue so they scrapped the initial idea of having fatigue converted into a bonus.
