What are the largest issues plaguing XIV currently?

A few thoughts:

Not enough content for mid-core gamers. Got three kids and a spouse. No time to form a static these days and do the raiding scene. That said a lot of the casual content doesn't really last all that long. Which ends up in me leaving after a few weeks to play other games until the next patch.

Crafting and Gathering are basically pointless due to the bot infestation on the MB. This is great for people buying at lower prices but really sucks for those of us that focus on crafting. It's impossible to compete with bots that are running 24/7.

The housing system is absolute garbage. I get that they want a neighborhood feel, but I don't even see my neighbors more than once a month as it is. Might as well just be completely instanced.
