4.1 - The emptiest patch yet.

[Elvin]

2.1 was filled to burst with content because in all likelyhood some, or even most, was stuff that did not make it into the game in time for release (meaning it might've very well been in development even prior to ARR's launch), and you can only add brand new functions to the game to a certain point, as the more you add, the more cluttered and confusing it becomes to the user, and the bigger the game grows the harder it becomes to perform basic tasks like bug testing and fixing.

2.1 probably included things that coudn't make in to the game in time.

4.1 probably includes some QoL changes that coudn't make in to the expansion in time. It was going to include other things, like Eureka, that coudn't make in to the expansion in time, but in the end, there's even no time for that.

And yeah, honestly I don't want new functions, but I would like to have at least 2-3 primals per patch.

I vaguely recall that the first tier of the Crystal Tower raid was apparently supposed to be in ARR's release, but they had to delay it into 2.1 (which also got delayed because of it, I think).

And now I just remembered the incredibly pointless quests leading up to unlocking the raid itself... good lord, thank goodness SE has never done that again.

Eureka was never meant to be 4.0 content, most of the UI changes weren't either they were developed on playerbase request
