4.1 - The emptiest patch yet.

I adore the inclusion of swimming as it makes the game world feel more immersive and it's a great addition for role-players. It also sets the stage for more engaging underwater content in the future.

The addition of underwater swimming is actually a good parallel to most of the new content in FFXIV. Neat and flashy feature added with stormblood, during the MSQ I was like "woah!" Exploring the depths of different cities was fun.

Then you beat the MSQ and they never give you a reason to go back underwater ever again.

I feel pretty much the same about swimming, although I realised early it would be pretty much this, however I hope that them adding swimmable areas to the housing district will mean that they will update the old world

I also agree that the underlining problem is that they appeased the instant gratification masses too much
