Does that mean there is no grind? only end game?

anyone have any info? Ive tried googling, but theres so much info on it, its hard to find relevent stuff, if that makes sense.

you won't find information because of C&D notices sent out to sites faster than Funimation C&D's (although I did see a torrent for FFXIV related content on demonoid that is still up).  Testers are under a NDA so they can't even state they're in.  I also opted-in but I opted in on day 1 back in November.  By no levels, they mean no levels like in WOW I think.  Who knows about end-game and amount of grinding.  Rumours are that there have been multiple waves of testers added- wave 1 in early March, and the most recent wave being on the 2nd

DaggerLite:
BETA sign-up has been up since December, I think. I'm not signing up for it.

I'm not sure about it yet. I have difficulties understanding how they'll move away from grinding, even if there's "no levels." Square Enix is Japanese, after all. I have my eyes set on a different MMO at the moment, which also has no levels. It's mainly PvP and RP driven, and while there is PvE, it's pretty much a niche because people don't have a reason to stay online 24/7.

sounds to me more like the introduction of the endless grind. now instead of leveling up and gaining skills in the process you have to train every skill individually.

not to mention you facilitate the lack of physical levels with more levels of gear and the possibility of proficiency or training while wearing specific gear or equipment

Islandsnake:
I really want to look forward to this game, but I think the general buzz is that the game looks pretty damn boring.

I was hoping they would learn lessons from other MMOs that have come out since FF11, but it seems they only looked at there own game when making FF14 and I don't think that'll be enough.

Still willing to give the beta a whirl, or at least watch some streams!
