Was any of the 6.3 content worth waiting 4 months for?

Weakest x.3 patch since ARR. Its realy sad. You folks can check the patch notes of previous x.3 and see that this one, which even takes longer to release, is just lazy.

The term "lazy" is pretty weak, given that you have exactly zero knowledge of what's going on in the background for the development team. For example, a makeover of the graphics for the game is being worked on at the same time as the patches for this expansion. Work on the next expansion has begun already. And, of course, 6.3 doesn't feel the same as in the past. The "weakness" you perceive is due to the fact that the x.3 patch in the last four cycles was the climax of the expansion.

Oh boy another bait thread

No, the wait was indeed not worth it, no matter how you try to spin unless you're brand spanking new none of this is enough to last a whole 4 months. Unless you're into pvp it just simply isn't enough.

If you try you're absolute hardest maybe you can stretch it a month? I guess it all comes down to what the relic grind and deep dungeon will be like. But, even then that's gonna stretch it another month unless you're going for a solo deep dungeon achievement, which I assume there will be.

Edit: and should we really be taking a 3 month breaks in between patches? I know people like not missing out, but for an MMO the lifespan of the content just isn't enough.

Usually when people take a break, it involves unsubbing so they aren't paying 15 a month for something they aren't playing. Staying subbed to refresh your house kind of defeats the point...

Depends on how long of a break you want to take. A month? Forty-four days? Five years?

You can skip every other subscription payment by logging in on the last day of your current subscription, visiting your house, logging off and not paying for the next month's subscription. 43 days after your subscription expires you can resubscribe, log in, visit your house, and log off for another 28 days. Rinse, repeat.

Although I question why you want a house if you only visit it long enough to stop the auto-demolition process. Much less expensive to purchase an apartment and take a five year vacation from the game.

I'd rather the game have enough content to not necessitate gaming the system with 43 day breaks but you know.

No it was definitely not worth the wait. FFXIV is starting to play more like a mobile game to me. I log on then do my dailies and weeklies and log off for the rest of the day. It's more of a habit then anything.

Its interesting that were just ignoring that 6.3 isnt even done releasing yet? Have we forgotten a new deep dungeon thats coming later?

[FlatLined]

You mean the same Deep Dungeon we got that was released in Heavensward but with a new coat of paint and is mostly used at a catch up mechanic? Oh Yippee!!!

That was acknowledged in the OP. You did read it before posting, right?
