Which is kind of my point, because outside of limited windows when the exp gains are double or triple, the gains remain relatively low. Keep in mind that as you yourself pointed out it took you 2 years, which means if you werent lucky neough to be able to play much during those limited windows, it would take you at least twice as much.
I dont know if some of you people still dont realize it, but spending 4-5 years on XP grind alone in a game was and still is ridiculous, its longer than a lifetime of an adverage game. It gets even more ridiculous if you consider the fact that most of the XP curve is not even suplemented by any content you unlock, because that dries out after level 63 and completely stops at 70 (which is about 7% and 30% of the XP needed for max level respectively), so you spend literall years doing trivial content just so your XP bar moves a little bit every couple of months.
it might, but its not necesarily a good thing when you balance the game in a way that makes a casual player spend a decade on XP grind to reach max level.isn't TSO supposed to be a slow game
