Careful pal, this much truth will net you a lot of scorn.We also have no new deepdungeon, no Hildibrand quests, only one dungeon each big patch, no real news of the island sanctuary, no news of any content that will be like eureka/bozja and ishgard restauration.
Remember when the first max lvl dungeon gave you gear? Like in Stormblood? Which was a completely unique new glam set? Yeah no more of that, only accessoires now! And to add to that now even the lvl89 dungeon gives no new set but only accessoires.
Remember last time we got pvp weapons? Somewhere back then in stormblood. Or two pvp sets each expansion?
Remember when the normal gear wasn't just lazy reskins?`Or at least some sets were fresh looks? Yeah now it's all reskin, literally everything is.
Heck even the glamour tataru gave us this time (and we got none in ShB) was just a reskin of the coat that existed since ARR.
This time you don't even get a mount or a title when you bring every job to 90.
I couldn't believe what we actually got during the Garlemald stuff, I was hoping for a really nice elaborate design but it's just... a fluffy jacket with hideous modeling.
Still can’t believe after not giving us a tataru glam in ShB, they had the audacity to give us one in EW being a reskin… Yet another example of mass reskins this expansions.
Expansions are huge in this game. Volume is never an issue. Personally I'd like different types of content rather than the same stuff every year, but people would just math it out and complain that we went from 74 corridors down to 45. They had to stop selling the game because it's too popular, so my personal preferences don't really matter.
To be fair, it's a combination of different factors. Perhaps most importantly, the servers simply aren't able to handle the player load they were faced with. A lot of people are stuck at home with more free time than expected and so MMO's are making a bit of a comeback as a consequence. WoW has also been infused with controversy after controversy for a while and a lot of people decided to quit and find something else to play. However, GW2 and ESO have also been seeing renewed interest and they have been around for about as long as FFXIV has.
Even with WoW's decline, though, FFXIV is seeing more popularity but it hasn't reached the same numbers as WoW during its 'golden era' nor is it likely to do so with the insistence on playing it safe at every possible turn.
I do think FFXIV is the best option on the market at the moment, but that isn't saying much given the competition.
You do realize that we don't get some of this stuff until later patches, right? The reskins are getting a bit out of hand though, I will give you that. At the very least they should be reskins that people really want, and dyeable to boot.We also have no new deepdungeon, no Hildibrand quests, only one dungeon each big patch, no real news of the island sanctuary, no news of any content that will be like eureka/bozja and ishgard restauration.

They forget we get free 89 unique gear for each job from a vendor instead of grinding it in a dungeon, that scales to 90, and you expect them to remember how content is released? Pfffbbt...
Or that we'll be getting info on the island sanctuary later?
Or that ShB was the unique expansion that gave a mount for leveling all combat jobs?
Or That PvP content is coming later?
That normal gear has been re-skins since HW?
Not sure they do realize, could be wrong though! People want it right now, all of it!
We didn't get that mount achievement right off the bat either as far as I'm aware. I'm pretty sure it was a 5.1 thing.They forget we get free 89 unique gear for each job from a vendor instead of grinding it in a dungeon, that scales to 90, and you expect them to remember how content is released?

It's pretty irrelevant in the first place. I'm pretty sure if you look historically at MSQ, in Hevensward we got the Dragon mount and Manacutter, comparatively in Stormblood we got the Yol Mount, comparatively in Shadowbringers to my knowledge the MSQ saw no presence of a mount, yet an Amaro added as a reward for all classes to 80 (in 5.0). Comparatively Endwalker has a certain unlockable from the final quest of the MSQ. Not to mention the Calydontis from Khloe's Gold Certificate, or the Wivre mount for Gemstones.
You could just argue they decided to stick the reward back into the MSQ (Which historically had always been the case anyway) as opposed to the mount being unlocked via maxing all jobs.

That free unique gear at 89 is literally no different than the gear we got at 70 and 80. It’s the af gear. They just released it at 89 so they could scam us out of getting an 89 gear set from the 89 dungeon. People realize reskins have always been a thing, it’s the fact that they’re far more rampant than they’ve ever been. Like someone else pointed out, we got no tataru glam at the end of shb and we finally got one for EW but it’s literally a reskin, not even unique.They forget we get free 89 unique gear for each job from a vendor instead of grinding it in a dungeon, that scales to 90, and you expect them to remember how content is released?

Curiously, last I checked the 79 gear in ShB was just reskins of the level 50 gear from WoD. The level 80 Job Quest gear was the Weathered. Not sure how any of it's a scam, as your words make zero sense since they literally give it to you earlier on and let it scale even. If anything, that's a boon.That free unique gear at 89 is literally no different than the gear we got at 70 and 80. It’s the af gear.
