So I'm not seeing how this is them changing things up from 2.0/3.0

If you including the end of msq quest for 2.0, the 3.0 had 3 4 man dungeons and an 8 man trial on day 1, not 2 dungeons. Still 4 pieces of endgame content, also wasnt bismarck and ravana ex already in on day 1? So that be 3 4 man dungeons and 3 8 man trials, which would add up to 6 pieces of lvl 60 content. Also you barely had to do a fraction of the sidequests to get all the aether currents, maybe 5/30 per zone, its better now that theyre on the first in the chains but still. MSQ gave you 3/5 currents and in AL you got all of em just from the MSQ. I had to do most of the sidequest on future jobs because i just didnt need them to lvl up. Before you say took my time and did daily roulette, my first 60 was PLD on the morning of the official release. Farming gear pretty much accomodated most of the xp needed.

You cannot include 3.0 content in the delay between patch cycles because we paid an additional $40 for it. What I listed above released in the subsequent eight month span and it simply wasn't enough. At no other point did the game suffer such a massive drought, though that is primarily because nearly half of what did release fell flat on its face. Like I said, the fact the devs specifically announced they will not take a break like that without better preparation speaks volumes. They wouldn't say it had things gone well.

I'm sorry you didn't level any other classes than Monk. 3.0 had plenty of gameplay. Most of it was not at Endgame. I spent most of those first few weeks leveling all 3 tanks to 60 and collecting the new gears sets.

The WoW "Only Endgame is important" mentality is an incredibly toxic.

This is always a silly argument. Someone who has no interest playing certain jobs won't see leveling them as content because... well, it isn't. I mean, think about it. Would you consider doing someone you don't like/have no interest in fun?

Looks like their response was aimed at Moonlite and their claim that 3.0 launched with only 2 pieces of end-game content, rather than yours about the delays and content added up through 3.2.

Yep. Since the day you could hit 60 there has been more than 2 gearing progress instances. Pretty sure it was 6 as i stated. That point was more on her claim of "not enough to do for two weeks til alex started"
