The one consistent critic on Heavensward is "too much like ARR"? srsly?

If any of you would actually read the Live letters, you'd know that the main content of HW isn't even out yet, 3.0 is just the base. There're still tons of things needed to be fixed, pushing out new contents now only make people complaint even more...

Pretty much this, ARR felt pretty barebones when it first came out, so much so that I left until patch 2.2. I'm pretty sure they plan on adding dozens of little changes along the way, and IMO, that is the best way to do it, rather than change a ton of stuff at once, alienating all the players.

To those complaining about the Airships just being another form of ventures, we will actually be able to board the airships in 3.1 and go exploring in them.

Everybody knows that. It's not the point. The point is that developers could of brought in new or old school ways of content, but they decided to continue the same run the treadmill content that we had been running the treadmill for the pass 2 years.

Everything gets obsoleted every 2 plus months. Do I see any reason to cap esoterics every week.. No I don't, cause I know that gear will be obsolete and dropped as dungeon token exchange a la i90 artifact armor.
Sure they need to fix things, no doubt. They also need to stop taking content and making it worthless faster than what I can get to experience it.

This is my primary and one of my only complaints about this game. Especially since the design made it impossible to get some of the Alexander gear before it was outdated by Esoteric and Alexander Savage gear.
