I have played the game since PC release, and worked hard for alot of my stuff as well, but I dont think the game is horrible now, in fact I love that the new top tier gear is free, just have to put in some work to get them.

This is the 2nd time in the games life stuff that was expensive is now dirt cheap. During inflation I farmed my ass off to get a Hauby which at the time was around 5mil got it eventually but after leaving the game for awhile it was only worth 400k-600k. Another case I bought Moliones's Syther and ring for around one mil again left the game for awhile and guess what was worth only around 200k and now combined they are worth maybe 40k.

My point is you can leave the game for a few months or years and the price of stuff will NEVER be the same as it was when you leave. At first yeah I was a little PO'd but got over it quickly. Also now gil really is not all that much part of the game at higher level.

Ok I've posted here a couple times now but I feel a real life analogy is needed.

According to the OP's logic: I go out tomorrow and buy a $32,000 2011 chevy impala with all the bells and whistles. I have worked for 3 years to earn enough money to buy it. I hang on to that car for 10 years, I've loved it, paid it off and just taken really good care of it. All the while 20 different models of that car have been released over the same time period. In 2021 I take my car in for trade and find out it's value is now 6x less than what I paid for it. According to the OP's logic I should be mad at the manufacturer because they released new models with newer better stuff which caused the demand for my model to drop thereby causing it's market value to depreciate.

My car is still good, it's just the market value for the model that changed because newer stuff came out.

Well to the OP I say this, welcome to real world economics in a video game format. It's pretty foolish to expect values of items to remain the same when new things come out. That's just how it is, but by your logic I should be mad at General Motors for releasing newer models that made mine obsolete, rather than blaming a market that demanded newer models. Think about that one for a bit.
