ARR often feels very contradictory in its design (long)

[Jubez187]

Give us new hard mode primal fights, new dungeons and higher tier gear instead of the main raid dropping ilvl80 stuff.

I wanted those things. What you want IS coming (Leviathan, Shiva [rumored]). SE had a lot on their plate with a buggy launch and whatnot. I don't think you understand the time it would have taken to:
1. Think, create, write the story for the new primals.
2. Create the quests leading up to the battle.
3. Design the primal's art, then RENDER it and its arena/battleground/stage/whatever.
4. Design the fight, think of the mechanics etc etc.
5. Code the fight into the game.
6. Write and record the music. (I'm a musician, this takes a while)
7. Playtest the fight, make sure all things are working as intended and that it's a good difficulty.

But you seem like a shiny-new-toy raider. So chances are you would rather have new primals right now at the expense of having 0 story. You want to log on, see "Leviathan is now available via the duty finder" run it, loot it, desert it. Then you know where you'll be? Right back on here begging for the next shiny-new-toy raid.

You just sound irrational, honestly. You're looking for Expansion-esque content out of the first major patch. I was actually wow'd at how much stuff they did in the patch. To read everything in the patch notes takes about 15 minutes.

I love assumptions. Sweeping generalizations after reading two of my posts about my playstyle is exactly what I expect from this board. Carry on champ. Continue to be WoW'd (see what I did there?) at how much stuff they did this patch and happily pay your monthly fee. I believe in SE but I'm disappointed to say the least with 2.1.

I've contributed plenty to this conversation if you read the whole thread, what ideas are you bringing to the table to make the game better? Or are you just here to play mr super cool guy white knight?
