I see too much blue in the last graphs.

People whine too quick Tongue

I'm used to a game with barely any quests and its basically pure grinding, so this is easy. Took me about 2 years to get my char capped in that game, here it takes about 4-5 months, if u take it easy. Thats awesome if u ask me Smile

This is really old graphs. I recall seeing these before CBT if I recall or around that time anyway. In the subsequent patches more quests were added to the lower levels, then more quests added to the higher levels and quest exp grinded.

On top of that while doing the quests your actually knocking off a lot of the grind exp as well so it's not strictly accurate anyway.

Overall I'm happy with the levelling curve but I'd prefer for more quests to be added so there's more of a choice if you want to quest or grind to level. NC Soft said they'll be smoothing the levelling curve etc next year though so I'm not worried yet.

I still stand by my expectations that this will prove the next vanilla WoW after more content is added and the game becomes bigger and more popular.

Personally I would like group exp to be more refined, at the moment it's unrewarding and honestly fairly boring. I prefer doing things together with others most of the time. I don't mind grind per se, quests are really just gloryfied grind unless they have a cool story which is seldom the case.

I love the graphs though. Make me giggle.
