November? really?

With the 5 month break and how the last few months more and more people are realizing how 3.0 is just 2.0, but less. I can see the population taking a huge hit if 3.1 isn't amazing.

And from what we know so far... it's not that amazing.

Opinions. I think it looks awesome. I'm here for the fun (ie, I do Coil unsynced with friends instead of Alex) and 3.1 looks like loads of fun.

Same, I'm SUPER hyped for the explorations, a content I can do with my 2 friends that play too and with the Lord of Verminion minigame. AND a way to get top level equips that doesn't require me to raid, yay!!

I'm even thinking about going to Limsa to shout YOSHIDAAAAAAAAAAA because the hype airship sailed here.

Why do you have a problem with people unsubbing if they're bored? :s

That's not my problem the problem is how ppl act i mean if you wanna unsub do it that's fine but plz don't come on here to trash talk or say this games sooo boring just un sub and move on. since 99% of the ppl that do quit or un sub will be back once a patch drops so why complain and whine so others may see it? the staff made a good point {they wanna rest} and to see ppl complain about that i'm sorry but it's a lil rude is it not?

Almost everyone likes to express their opinion, whether it's nice or rude doesn't change that fact. There have been a few people saying they don't deserve a break which is silly, but for the most part the other people are expressing that the game is getting boring and will unsub for a month or two. The same could be said for you, ignore them and don't read this thread anymore, but you do so regardless because it's normal. I'm not saying it's right, but it is what it is.

And yet the Japanese forums have a similar thread on their boards, isn't that weird.....

*shakes his head at people who say 3.0 didn't offer much*

For endgame, it doesn't.

Repeat Neverreap/Fractal, or Seal Rock, ad nauseum for your tomestones, and clear Alexander each weak. Seal Rock is the only thing new here, if we're comparing to A Realm Reborn, but in a community that, for the most part, is purely PvE, that doesn't mean a lot... Heavensward is basically A Realm Reborn, minus the Relics, at this point... Although I'd honestly say it's worse than A Realm Reborn, because I find Alexander to be pretty lackluster, but that's what I get for going in hopeful, only to be met with nothing more than a pure DPS check... High Voltage wasn't much, but at least it was something, Coil was leagues ahead of Alexander off that alone IMO, never mind the story as well...

Opinions. I think it looks awesome. I'm here for the fun (ie, I do Coil unsynced with friends instead of Alex) and 3.1 looks like loads of fun.

See, I agree with this, but... I don't think many people purchased Heavensward so they could do 2.x content, they purchased it for the new content... Had they expanded upon the old content though, by lets say adding a special Treasure Map to old loot tables, which grants access to a Guildhest-style Lv60 event (think BCNM style content from XI) for some relevant rewards, then we'd be talking... That would be something new, and it would be content that seems twice as filling, because you'd first have to beat Ifrit (Extreme) for an Inferno Map, before doing a special Lv60 instance against Amalj'aa for reasons.

Instead... Instead we just have Fractal and Neverreap... Going through old content duo/trio is fun and all, but it's not something I'm going to log on all week to do... Sky-Islands seem like the new exciting content, but that just makes the delay for 3.1 all the more painful... I got my fill of Amdapor Keep and Coil in the early weeks of 2.0, and I mean this in every sense, but that's essentially all Heavensward is offering right now... Well, were it not for Seal Rock, but I'm really not going to kid myself and pretend that's relevant for 90% of the playerbase. For most, Heavensward is either redoing Amdapor/Coil at Lv60, or redoing Amdapor/Coil in Neverreap/Alexander.

3.0 is the VERY FIRST time we could do L51-60 content. If you expected more for endgame, you have unrealistic expectations. Still, 2x Extreme, Alex NM, Alex Savage, Fractal/Neverreap isn't terrible. During level cap increase patches (ie, expansion releases) you should expect most content to be during the leveling, not after. That comes later. This is essentially the only time they could realistically add L51-59 content so it makes sense the focus was there for 3.0. Expansions are for leveling, patches are for endgame.
