How is anyone fine with the 4-month patch delivery schedule?

Now, I know it might be a little hard to believe, but you can actually like a game and still make suggestions, or criticisms of content of said game. Wild I know.

The forums have never been so negative. Even I am surprised at how negative it is now. Maybe that actually says something about the state of the game.

That's because there's more people finally openly speaking about the mundane nonsense we've been dealing with for years.
People are getting sick of it now. If others didn't jump down your throat and berate when you criticize the game we'd
wouldn't be in this mess. This is the result of White Knighting and now look at the game lmao.

The game needs to make some serious changes. Taking away content is not fun.
Rehash items, events and other stuff is not fun. If they keep doing that I'ma
say down the sub fee a bit. Obviously the subs aren't funneling into XIV itself.

Ask 5 people, what is not fun in the game and you will get 7 different answers.

Indeed. But using housing as it was a leash that keeps someone from unsubscribing even if they repeatedly state there's nothing left for them to enjoy then it's Fallacy. The game wasn't intended to fool you into a loop that keeps you playing daily. No random loot like in say WoW, no locking the progression between number of daily tasks. Make of it what you want.

Demolition time on house is 45 days which is 15 days longer than your standard subscription plan. You can literally log in on last day of your sub, visit your house and unsub for 6 weeks and only after that you need to sub again to keep it. Yes you're still paying for sub though at vastly reduced rate (at the very least half of the cost of subsequent subscription). Although at this point I feel it's more of a fallacy. If you don't enjoy the game this much i don't think you should care if you lose a house.

Onlly problem is there be no new long lasting content in this time,will there?

While I agree with your sentiment, I would say they aren't far off. Blanket removal of content is almost always a bad thing. Even wow learned this when they removed large chunks of the game in cataclysm, that's why they added all the time-travel npc's.

Is you want to talk about taking away content look no further than destiny 2. Game has been gutted completely.

[SamsaraTrickstar]

The problem is not take content but how to make it relevant. There ungodly amount of wasted work in open world maps and dungeons. Why not make them a more relevant part of the game loop?

Ahh, thank you. I have slightly misread the sentence, i quoted. Yes, content removal is bad.

I think they're trying to say that there are certain things (such as a house, if you own one) which you stand to lose if you do take breaks. Which is correct.
They're not saying that Yoshi-P is holding everyone at gunpoint.
Or is he?

Expect demolition is still on hold til further notice and besides SE emails you to warn you.
