Questions about proposed changes

[Kaden]

making people do filler content to earn back their PP is silly.

Regardless, I still think my point stands. For a long, long time people could do whatever they wanted to get zeni and they just didn't do it.

"Filler" implies that quests or jobs were relatively meaningless and only served to gain money.

That's 100% on the the writer. I used jobs as a very to both further my character and create zeni. Additionally, like I said, people didn't even have to do jobs to get zeni. A "job" that had nothing to do with your profession was a "quest." Quests could be, literally, anything. The only thing someone had to do was make a thread in the QSU forum asking for a grading. That was it. People still didn't do it. That was my point.

We made it as easy as we possibly could for people to get zeni and they just didn't do it. Of course it's going to seem like its hard to refill PP when no one has money because no one turned in quests.

You have to work around the system to be able to have a character who activates tier transformations often, which limits freedom.

This is hugely misleading as well. You have to "work around the system" (in this case it should be "use the system") in order to activate transformations often in fights against other people. PP is only spent when using a Power-Up to directly impact the outcome of a player-vs-player fight. The entire point of the system is to "limit the freedom" of someone to walk around winning fight-after-fight-after-fight because they have the highest-tier transformation.

It is intentionally restrictive, but only in a very qualified manner.

EDIT: I should state that I have no intention or expectation or changing your mind on this issue. If someone has just decided they don't like X, then they don't like X. My intention is to explain the function that the mechanic is intended to serve. I can safely say that it is only going to change as long as a similar mechanic is implemented to take its place.
