Let’s talk future.

One is the biggest issues right now is how the world feels small. That certainly needs to be addressed within the next year and the PR DPT needs to know that the teaser content should start flowing after the release of 2.1.

Agreed and the open world needs to hold some purpose. I played ESO for an hour in one zone and I felt that one zone alone was bigger than this entire game, I felt more adventure and explored more in that one zone than this entire game. FFXIV right now, as a friend of mine once put is a "Glorified chat room" with some instanced dungeons. Yippee!

Why is "The game is new" a valid agruement as to why they don't have more content? It's not like this is the first MMORPG ever, it's not like they don't understand exactly what the vast majority does in these games, hit level cap then do endgame.

They make a game with very little endgame to speak of so naturally people run out of things to do and complain on the forums. Then those people get attacked by others because they are upset with every right to be. Why should you continue paying a monthly sub for game that has almost nothing to do? What else would you like these people to do? Just leave? Yeah that's why they come to the forums to state they are unhappy about the game and would like to see a change if they thought the game was horrible beyond hope they would just leave.

Yes you can go do other things like level another class/job but it's just a repeat of what you did before, with nothing new to do of course you'll get bored fast.

This might have been an interesting read if I was obvious to what 2.1 had coming...

If you ask me SE, is just a tad behind schedule in release 2.1 but still with in a reasonable window. I say this because a patch should launch right as everyone is finishing up old content and getting bored. Seems like 3 months is the magic number.

As for the OP, have a look at FFXI patch notes starting from launch and tell me did better.
