5.3 was delayed by 8 weeks. Under 2 months. Going on from the date of August 11th, 16 or 17 weeks would be the 1st or 8th December, which would certainly be "early December" so there is no extra delay to 5.4. I also wonder how things with no release dates given can be delayed at all to be honest.

You come across as extremely entitled. You speak of transparency but they spoke in length on 2 separate LL's about the delays and why they are taking the time they are. How things are different in the East to the West, and how this would cause delays to be slightly longer over there. (You mentioned Blizzard delaying by less before. More staff, bigger budget, and, in the last few years, an inferior product. Easy to understand the shorter delay.) Carry on being ignorant to the information they have put out there to forward your agenda.

My workplace closed down for 4 months, and you're here complaining about a video game being delayed for 8 weeks, whilst the worst health crisis the world has seen in over a century is going on outside.

No one is forcing you to keep paying your sub whilst there's a content drought.

The fact that you said "Let's be real, FFXIV has stopped polishing content since the release of 2.0" just tops it off for me. If you can't see how things have improved from 2.0 to 5.3 in every department then you obliviously have a huge negative bias. Delusional.
