Add to that, what, a four new weapon sets from dungeons, from one of the EX trials, Savage Raid, and two from tomestones. not to mention at least 13 new 'weapons' for tradecrafts. - Nice try.

    2. Hell of a lot of new, fantastic OSTs, as well, what's your point here? Not enough music composed by Soken WHILE HE HAD CANCER?!

    3. Ultima Thule is also remnants of shattered worlds, maybe the reason it's the 'smallest one based on walkable terrain' is for thematic/story reasons? Labyrinthos, again, could well be that size because it's literally an over-sized storage facility, while Mare Lamentorum is both a prison, and spacecraft, it's not a 'whole new world' it's a satellite. A satellite which is FAR larger than Ul'dah The comparison to Ruby Sea is laughable too, as it has about as much walkable train as Ultima Thule.

    4. There have been TWO examples of voice acting in raids, beyond combat lines: The final two Coils raids, due to wrapping up the story of the Calamity, and Eden because... give Gaia a voice? I'm not sure why. The lac of raid voice acting is the norm, not a deviation from the norm.

    For someone who claims to adore this game, you have a LOT of nitpicking of things that... well, aren't true. Funny, that.
    I think what’s a bit funny is you labeling things that we’ve gotten past expansions as “new.”Tomestone gear is always a thing, that’s not really new. We literally didn’t get a left side gear set for the 89 dungeon meanwhile ShB had one. The level i think it’s 87 weapons are literally just the 83 dungeon weapons recolored. The 87 dungeon gear is reused and isn’t even role swapped or dyable. I believe all of the crafter and gatherer gear outside of the 90 set is all reused as well. All the weapons you’re talking about are literally the norm and…kind of what they have to include for leveling and endgame purposes. But look at things like when SB gave usprimal weapons for the new jobs. Do you see those for sage or reaper?As for the music thing, i think it’s really disgusting to see so many people trying to emotionally manipulate things with Soken’s cancer. They have other composers, let’s not be ignorant. If everything is put all on one man, then the company needs to reevaluate as that also is disgusting.Thid expansion was delayed for 6-7 months, and what is there to show for it exactly?

    Just a quick point, the level 87 weapons aren't reswaps of the 83 weapons. The 83 weapons have a steam punk theme. The 87 weapons are totally different. I'm speaking of the dungeon weapons here.

    The other point stands. The fact that the 89 dungeon doesn't even offer a left set of gear is sort of jarring.

    It's little parts that feel left out that when you add them all up, something seems off about the amount of things EW offered.

    Edit: And I will say, it's an absolute fashion tragedy that they didn't make the reused assets of the 87 gear dyable. Absolute CRIME. That look is by far and large my favorite glam appearance in the game, and it's STILL not dyable.

    Yes I'm sure all their other composers were just eagerly waiting twiddling their thumbs awaiting for a task. Spare me. Of course they have other composers, and many of these composers have their own tasks and responsibilities. I find it very unlikely that the composers or anyone for that matter is sat on their desk waiting for a task whilst just collecting a pay check. There's not really much you can do when other people have their own tasks and responsibilities. Not to mention they would still be required to be enlightened on the 'setting' of the dungeon/raid/instance. Including the environment and the emotions it intends to invoke.
