Re: The *ahem* OFFICIAL "FINAL FANTASY XIV Online" Thread of Ultimate Anticipation!
The thing about XI is that you need to organize your life around the game (or more exactly around your LS's schedule) if you want to get most of the good items/quests/mission in the game. That left casual players out from most of the good stuff, even though casual players are the biggest part of the population.
The way I see it all players should have access to all items and be able to complete all quests/missions in the game regardless of how much time they can dedicate to play each day.
To do so SE only needs to make it so party play makes things much easier and faster, to encourage (NOT force) people to actually interact with each other. While still allowing casual players to access the same items/activities, albeit slower.
Example > Say you want to get a Relic weapon. A LS/guild would probably be able to get one for you in 9 months, while soloing you would need year and a half to obtain it.
Halving the time required to get that kind of items would be more than enough to encourage players (who are able to) to simply join a LS/guild, while allowing those who are unable to due to lack ot time or irregular schedules to still have access to those items in the game.
