It's certainly what seems to be the most player friendly, but there are some games that don't.
I'm sure there must be some sort of compromise.
All games come with a rating, for example.

[horologia]

I think I may have missed what CERO rating Fragment was, if it was on the box label anywhere.

Though perhaps it hasn't been assigned one yet, since it is a beta.

[ we are electing to ignore that CERO proper only was established in 2002, two years after this game is supposedly set, shh. ]

[tot]

[ we are pretending immensely for this fictional world. ]

I don't recall one either...
Well, if there isn't a rating now, I'm sure there might be one when it opens to the public.

[horologia]

Hopefully the playerbase's actions during this beta do not drive it up unnecessarily.

[ is this a joke? maybe it's a joke.

quick, someone go romance and seduce some npcs. call it testing the limits of their programming or something. ]

[tot]

I'm fairly certain that might happen. It's just a matter of how.

[ she's been on the internet for long enough to know. ]

[horologia]

Imagine, a warning on the box not for anything the game innately contains, but simply for 'community generated content.'

[ like, mmos already always have the 'community interactions' disclaimer, but... ]

[tot]

I'm sure it might not be the weirdest thing that could ever happen.

[horologia]

It wouldn't- though perhaps it might be a little odd in a game without a crafting system, or emphasis on user-generated content.

Or at least, I haven't seen any particular focus on that sort of thing yet?

[tot]

I haven't seen anything like that either, and I'm not too sure this is the kind of game that would include something like that.

Maybe if they find out that there's a demand for it during the beta...

[horologia]

I don't think I've seen much of a call for it on the forums yet, but perhaps people will find out whether they want that kind of thing after we've seen more of the game?

[ hit level cap, run out of content and get bored, as you do, ]

[tot]

Given how recently we've all joined the beta, it would be a very bad sign if people were already looking for that kind of thing.
It's kind of obvious that this MMO is more about exploring than crafting.

[horologia]

Yes, it's only been a day or two. The kinds of players who would hit the level limit in that amount of time probably wouldn't be interested in crafting systems to start with...

Perhaps we'll give it another week or so first?

[ that's how long it takes for casuals to hit level cap right (I say, looking away from my neglected ffxiv) ]

I will say that the exploration system they have here is rather interesting. I think we've barely scratched the surface of it so far.

[tot]

[ stares at you and the ffxiv......... as i also sit here on my ffxiv "i'm on a break" sidelines. ]

Unless the crafting system is integrated with some other part of the game that they haven't introduced yet!
But the areas that we can explore really are the main focus here.
I cannot imagine the number of possibilities there are in order to keep things fresh.
