-ridiculous xp needed to level.
I know the first time I saw that I needed 1million xp to level, I was flabbergasted. Once I found the right methods and party though, 1million wasn't really so bad. It gradually sloped upward, 1mil, 1.1mil, 1.3mil, 2mil etc. etc. Now I'm lvl60 and need about 3.4m to lvl....not so bad,then I found out that level 69 requires 11million xp....

excuse me..but did it quadruple in 9 lvls? It was hard enough getting to 60 on Stonies and Trumpys but there's no way the average person will grind to 70 on the same mobs they did 20 lvls before...

This is the fate of all MMORPGs. Each level is mathematically exponentially harder to attain. For example, I know that when I played Runescape... it took as long to get from lvl 98 to 99 as it would take to do lvls 1-70 all over again. The road to the top is fun... but once you get near the peak, it starts to become boring and repetitious. That's why I always find new games after a while.
