    There are other MMOs, even some F2Ps, that manage to have patch cycles shorter than FFXIV's while also providing considerably more content.

    And what about the people who do all forms of content saying the same thing? Because, news flash, quite a bit of the commentary on the lack of stuff to do is coming from people that have run out of stuff to do.

    I wasn't aware that exploratory zones counted as raids but ok.

    This never has to be the case, They can just improve the size of the development team.

    From what we heard Square Enix recently acquired multiple game studios, any number of those studio's could be handed over to the XIV team to help bolster the amount of content we receive in the same timeframe.



    We are still waiting for it. If they are going to spare no expenses to invest into the games future, they need a bigger team to help reduce the games dead periods.

    And this isn't one of those mmos. Do you think that they'll suddenly start pumping out more content with shorter cycles just because other mmos do it?

    I'll be honest, that doesn't sound like them saying "we're going to double the money we invest into FFXIV and add a bunch of studios to development" it sounds like PR speak. But hey, that would be amazing, maybe with 7.0 they'll ramp up development. Would be great for everyone to have what they want.

    That's.. not even the context of the discussion, though? What?

    You said them adding more content would require further increasing the time between patches. I observed that other MMOs manage to put out a lot more in a lot less time. Oft times with a lower budget, to boot. And yes, many of these MMOs do share staff with other games, so part of FFXIV's team being dedicated to FFXVI at the moment doesn't really offer much of an excuse. Hell, FFXIV itself defeats the argument. Patch cycles used to be shorter, and they did fairly consistently contain way more content than what we've seen from Endwalker patches thus far.

    Some people don't do any content in the game and still complain.

    That doesn't invalidate the arguments that people do have with the lack of content.

    They're perfectly capable of taking the measures necessary to do so. Whether they will do as much is another matter entirely - though a more competitive market will hopefully apply the pressure required to bring forth content that has more staying power.

    It also is one of 'those' MMO's given that Yoshi-P himself has pointed to World of Warcraft as inspiration for the game.

    All I know is that in Endwalker these extended patch cycles have amounted to more glitches and less content that actually lasts. Back to 3 month patch cycles please, it's clear that without the necessary amount of pressure being applied that the work we ultimately got is not up to the standard set in the past. Even prior to Endwalker I wasn't sympathetic to the reasons given for extending these cycles, but now? It's clear that doing so was one of the worst mistakes that they've made in the last 2 years.

    And all this with no promise of 7.0 prior to next spring at the earliest. Indefensible.
