Magdellan. I'm actually happy to see them put in gear checks with all this new content. There have been people playing this game for months and months, not to mention those who have been playing for years. If you add in content that is too easy to do, people will simply blast through it all and become bored and leave.Â
You need not only to add new content, but more challenging and difficult content to keep a strong player base. If they started adding say, normal level 50 dungeons or level 15 dungeons. That leaves the hundreds of thousands of players with geared characters with not much to do.Â
I don't consider myself an end-game players...honestly most of the MMO's I play I never reach end-game because I get bored too quickly, but I do definitely enjoy challenges. For those of us who do love challenges we have extreme modes and coils and all that fun jive. For those of us who take on a more easy approach there is gathering, crafting (which is about to get a much needed upgrade), roulette and dungeons (you can still get ilvl90 by just completing dungeons). I know its going to sound elitist when I say this and a lot are going to disagree with me, but i have always been of the mind that MMO's are not for everyone. They aren't for the people who enjoy sitting down maybe 3-4 hours a week and playing. They are for gaming enthusiast. I'm not saying that he needs to turn into a second job ala FFXI, but they are around for people who have more time to donate and can sit down and play a game for maybe 10+ hours a week.Â
At least that is my take on it.
