Lack of pve content

[KizuyaKatogami]

"Improvement" implies there is something wrong. Show me this magical MMO with endless content that FF14 should aspire to.

I'll hold my breath, I swear.

This game isn’t perfect. Bozja is by no means perfect at all. A lot of people weren’t satisfied with this expansions savage raids. Dungeons were made worse by streamlining them, and Yoshi says he wants to streamline them even more which is sad. Healers got butchered and tanks got simplified. So yes there’s many things that could be improved upon. We saw a downgrade in content from SB to Shb. Diadem was literally copy and pasted from an old area. Firmament was new yes but SB was able to give us Shirogane without sacrificing combat content. Let’s not forget that we also missed out on primal weapons for Gnb and Dnc, Voice acting for the 3 weapons trials, voice acting for the nier raids, Dungeons per patch, deep dungeon, 2 relic zones seeing that SB brought us 4. An extra trial(SB gave us Rathalis and Yojimbo,) Allied beast tribe quests, Hildibrand quests, end of expansion glamours. Also missed an entire second pvp set that we should’ve gotten as well.

Again, not interested in the "But I want more" Debate. We all want more of whatever content we're enjoying the most. We'll get it, be patient. It's been years since the Devs said you're more than welcome to take a break from the game while they work. I'm stating that there are plenty of other alternative challenges to reach in this game.

Keep in mind that Ultimates are hard to tune and require a lot of man-hours to create COVID hit every game hard, this is where it shows for FFXIV. It'll likely be 1 Ultimate next expansion cycle too, according to recent interviews. (Go looking, I'm not going to cite here.) So take a moment to breathe and stretch, you'll be waiting a while if you can't find anything else to do.

People have been being told to be patient for years now. It isnt until a few months ago that they finally addressed the housing placard issue with a solution(a hardly better one at that). Its been 6 years since people have been asking for that. The whole "take a break" stance is kind of ironic for the devs to take when they have a housing demolition timer so you cant be away from the game for more than 45 days.

And I'm sure none of that had anything to do with the pandemic, no, SE was just lazy, right? I mean, people being unable to do their job for months surely has no affect at all, on anything.

Dungeon and deep dungeons removal was confirmed before covid along with hildibrand. Dnc and Gnb had no weapons even before covid. Trials had no voice acting even before covid, same as alli raid. Please stop overrusing covid as an excuse for everything. Yoshi p even said they were working at 90% efficiency and raised that to 95% after some time, while also taking months of break to catch up with the content.Its why we had the huge content lull we had, because that was the time they used to catch everything up.

That's like saying those that didn't participate in Eden did nothing because the aether was going to be restored anyways.

Its literally the truth though. SB added Shirogane and we didnt need to build it and it didnt come at the cost of combat content lol

Because it wasn't content the same way the Ishgardian restoration. It was just a housing district, rather than a rework of a zone and numerous events to tell the story of rebuilding a city. The latter takes more time.

Welcome to themeparks. You paid your fee, rode the rides, punched a few mascots, and went home. You were never anything but a guest, and nothing you saw was real.

No welcome to games in general. You can distill pretty much all games down in the most basic of ways to make them meaningless.
