I'm definitely far less excited for the expansion after the previous two fanfests. NA fanfest is almost always a let down, so I still had hope for the JP and EU. But now that they've come and gone, I'm no where near the level of excited I was for Heavensward.

I'm still going to get it, but I think after 4 years I'm finally reaching a point where I'm losing interest in the game.
To play Devil's Advocate I believe the issue is in the past they had promised more than they could deliver, concepts like the add-ons and Open World Primals which were suppose to be introduced within the 2.0 expansion have yet to see the light of day. So I can understand why they aren't willing to divulge anything that isn't 100% yet.

Other things I can think off top of head, Diadem didn't come out as intended, as something that was suppose to feel more alive it fell short of what was promised. The promise to allow players to go inside their airships with FC housing has yet to see the light of day, if it will ever. The FC crafting concept in general feels like it fell short of what was promised. So by only letting players know what they know is confirmed, players won't be dissapointed when XYZ isn't in the game. Which yes, does mean the hype behind certain content is lost because they aren't going to announce the features they have planned cause heck even look at 3.0 cycle, so much content was either pushed back or delayed for an indefinite time because of deadlines. it's a rela shame that even up to this point Diadem is being pushed back another 2-3 weeks from the original 3.5 in whcih it was suppose to be released but was delayed.
