31/1 - Characters' max level is increased to 250!

Because leveling up without any additional content to play with is how the game has always worked. The highest level content was like, ~120 until 2010 or so, and there was pretty much no reason to level beyond 160-170 at the time (other than for personal achievement) because it took excruciating amounts of time and you'd max all your main 4th job skills by that point.

For me, additional content = whatever patch is being released at that time (in my case, the Dual Blade revamp) , I'm not out to reach max level , I couple in whatever content that is given while training my character , it's more fun that way and I don't get bored easily.
