Progression and Leveling
Today, ArenaNet brings us some information on the progression and leveling mechanics of Guild Wars 2 on their official blog.
Once again we find them breaking the MMO mold by offering us steady and straightforward progression and leveling rates. Instead of your typical XP increase per level (80 levels total, by the way), each level in GW2 will pretty much be the same as the one before. ArenaNet feels that people should feel accomplished after a session of gameplay and that progression shouldn't necessarily be focused solely on leveling. I guess that's what all the trait hunting, crafting, dungeons, skill collection and other stuff is for, huh?
If this has intrigued you even a little bit, I suggest you head over to ArenaNet's official blog and check out the entire article!

This just sounds like you have to do an extra grind to get what you would normally get from leveling anyway.
