And there is no "to be fair" for me - a game is either fun as it is and right now or it's not. It's not more fun for me because of its history nor is it less fun; WoW didn't get brownie points in later expansions just because I enjoyed WotLK most. If something was bad, it was bad, end of story. If something is good, it's good. I don't live in the past, the changes I disagreed with in previous expansions don't take away from the changes they made recently that appeal to me.
If anything, it's even the opposite: it proves they currently listen, they learn and they take action.

No, I think you missed my point.

My point was, it took them getting to the most extreme in the other direction before they changed, but they DID change, and in productive ways - even if it took them forever and a day to do so.

FFXIV isn't that far gone by any means, and it already did something similar going from 1.X to 2.0 in the first place, which indicates it probably will do the same thing in the future in terms of making productive changes, and PROBABLY well before Blizzard did.

I'm not saying don't play WoW or keep playing FFXIV, I'm saying it's more likely that FFXIV will make productive changes than that it will not. If even Activision-Blizzard did so, as toxic and anti-player, and often even anti-fun, as they've been, then FFXIV, with its far better (in the sense of people) Dev team and its own history of actually listening to players has as much or greater chance of doing so. The real trick right now is figuring out what that is.
