I love the internet! So much hatred thrown around the moment someone thinks otherwise than you do :P

As I said, the main issue isn't really what is currently available, but what is to come. I can't believe people are excusing the irrelevance of Crystal Tower by the fact it should have been here from launch. There is probably also the issue of the leveling phase was too short... In most other MMOs it takes more than a few days to a week to level a toon to max level for the first time so you start your end-game experience later on.

As for those saying WoW had nothing on release, you're still forgetting about the 4 dungeons I mentionned (all larger than AK/CM), Ony and the fact MC came on REALLY early (CT VS MC???). I do not see how WoW being almost 10 years older changes anything. If anything, it should be even more catastrophic for FF14 ARR to be this way since they should have learned from the past. It is true though that FF11 had nothing on release... but hey, they were in before WoW so you can't blame that one :P

P.S. Concerning turn 5 of Coil, it has been stated a large number of times during the past weeks and that devs were trying to fix it ASAP. I haven't looked for updates recently so I don't know if they did fix it.
