They do a good job on balance between vertical and horizontal. Can it be improved? Yes, anything can. Do people want to spam the same content for over 7 years? Likely not.
They can at least give the impression that this is what they're aiming for at some point. Right now there's no indication that they're ever going to break away from this steep vertical progression model that makes content obsolete before it's even released. I understand that this game hasn't been out for as long as FF XI but people become disillusioned about these things rather quickly if they don't see attempts at progress early on.

When does it stop being ok when there's only one end-game raid that drops worthwhile gear? 2.3? 2.4? 3.0? There has to be a point where the lack of content becomes something to hold them accountable towards.
