I guess most people would rather always have an open end just in case, even if eventually the game stops anyway. That's why most editions had a sort of open-ended epic levels system, even if they are largely unutilized, the fact that they exist delivers at least the feeling that there is always a future for a character. Speed of advancement is another matter. IMXP levelling up too fast makes players a lot more concerned with character management than playing the adventure. It also creates a lot more pressure to the DM to pace adventures in a specific way. I prefer a level advancement with decreasing speed: earning the first levels quickly hooks players into the game, but making each next level harder to earn than the previous gives overall a feeling that you must in fact get better as a player.</blockquote>
