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

Well it's clear 6.0 was a high point because it was the culmination of like 9 years. Things are bound to simmer down as the next grand thing builds up to pay off a long time from now. Can it be sustained? Imo 7.0 will answer that question. Totally fresh new adventure alongside the graphical update. Who knows what else is coming with that as well.

7.0 is probably going to be more of the exact same. Decently long MSQ, two trials, a few dungeons, hunts, the same old stuff we get in every x.0 expansion. Wouldn't be surprised if the graphics update gets pushed back to .1 or .2 too.

If hunts are going to be as boring as in EW, Im quiting being a train conductor. I just cant bother. Also, the graphic update is just some shaders and hi-res textures, smt people can do already with mods if they want to. But that doesnt make better content.

One random person saying they're currently doing other things != anything in any fashion about the existence of content in the game. I've posted a bunch of times about the considerable "to-do" list of things I'm looking forward to in FFXIV that span ARR-era content (last ARR relic weapon) to EW (Criterion + IS), and yet I've only played once or twice in the past couple weeks because I cycled for a bit to the season end of Destiny 2 and a bit more of the Warcraft 3 Reforged campaign. All of that content will still be there when I cycle back to playing primarily FFXIV again...

Cool. Now imagine this. People came back to 6.3... just to get back really fast. Thats the problem. No way to keep people engaged until relic grinds release

Like how there wasn't anything back in 5.3 to keep us occupied until Bozja and the relics were added in 5.35? Or like how there wasn't anything to keep us occupied in 4.3 until HoH came out in 4.35 and Pagos came out in 4.36? The middle of expansion patches are constantly like this.

This is purelly subjective, and as I told before in this thread, its not only matter of the quantity of the content, but also quality. I loved farming SoS, Nier raid, flying in ARR was really nice, and imagine this - ranked PvP reward I could go for. None of that I feel in current release.

Also, because its been like that for past years, it doesnt mean its ok! They should seriously start looking into schedule for daily activities sooner than 2 months after big patch.
