Heavensward so far

My wife and have been enjoying the expansion so far. We would give an overall 9 of 10 stars so far. We no longer devour content on purpose, we are reading all the quests, raising our DoH and DoL as we go and each play a new class in addition to our mains(WHM me, BRD her)..I am playing a DK and she is playing a AST, very competent duo. We are exploring every inch of every zone and doing every quest before we move on, no leves, a few fates. This is new territory for me, I was always the first to complete everything in my guilds and the first to every cap for every expansion in every game. I like this better.

The good.

Gorgeous, it is just beautiful.
Flying is great and well implemented.
RMT fixed for us completely, I was one of the forum's loudest complainers.
Voice acting improved.
New jobs and their respective quests are fun.
Had Poetic/WoD gear to start, new gear progression felt perfect all new left side gear by 54.

Not so good

DoH seems for cumbersome than it used to be, more mats to make an item and more of those mats are compound mats, and often made by other DoH classes. I ahve them all but it me 20 mins to make a HQ level 54 gun making all the mats myself.
Space, i don't have enough, you should have given us another retainer, charging is us for it is a money grab, we paid 60x2 don't be greedy.
