Sky was released with the same expansion as Dynamis, and not very far apart from it. I don't really consider "Sky" to be "before" dynamis. Dynamis was released a few patches after Zilart came out. Sky was brand new, and you couldn't go there right away because you needed to do the missions, which weren't released all at once.Dynamis outdate sky?
Before Dynamis, we had the artifact armor and their questlines. Most people got and used the AF a lot of time. Then Dynamis came out, and we got the relic armor, which mostly obsoleted the AF and it's content (Not entirely obsoleted, but many of the relic peices were the best at the time). Now we have the empyrean armor, which obsoletes the relic armor and its associated content. There is one main difference, and it's that a lot more time passed between the relic and Empyrean, so people got more used to having it. Even the events that came between dynamis and abyssea, most gear was on the same tier, or some items were incrementally better but not greatly.
If they didn't wait so many years to raise the level cap, people might not have been as bothered with it.
