This live letter was a massive disappointment

[Y2K21]

We back to pretending doing the bare minimum every non .0 patch is something great again?

Still no update to housing. Sad times.

All things considered the 6.x series has had more attention to housing than a lot of expansions before it.

I mean they're all ignoring the core issues with housing, but maybe by the end of Endwalker they'll finally put a house on the damn island.

Apparently yes. I remember the days when content wasn't so stretched out, I only wish I had spoken up more when we lost more and more dungeons and now we've seen beast tribes pushed to the .5 patch when they previously launched at the .0 one.

You didn't speak up at all. Those changes started in 2015. You didn't join the forums until 6 years later lol.

It's made lots of difference over the years. You may not be able to see it, joining as late as you seem to have. The game in 2013-2016 was very different in terms of qol.


People also only tend to remember negative changes not positive ones.


Most people don't remember that food buffs wore off when you died. You used to have to wait for CDs to come back up after wiping. Prog was delayed so much if the PLD used hallowed ground just before a party wipe and they needed that skill in their rotation early on.


Beast tribe currencies used to be in your inventory. Gear used to drop directly from savage bosses, not coffers, and there were no tokens. You just had to keep praying the pieces you needed would eventually drop.

Be careful about criticizing the game. Remember you can't hate FFXIV flaws and if you speak your mind the religious zealots cult of FFXIV will hunt you down burn you at the stake and cancel you

How does one cancel you? What does one have to do to cancel you? Maybe you were told to shut up and stop complaining before. Maybe you were told to unsub. Yet here you are, still free to dump SE in whatever way you see fit. Still free to label people as religious zealot cult.

Please tell me. I really want to claim such a power.

Buff timer?

Damage type on flying text?

Datacenter Travel?

Weapon drops turned into weapon Coffer?

Server travel on character selection screen?

Male Viera and upcoming Female Hrothgar?

more precise quest marker on maps and minimap?

Increased Triple Triad drop chance when duel with NPCs?

Fisher's Intuition stays even when disconnected?

Return of FFXV, Garo collab?

another terrible live letter that brings nothing new to the table except the savage change, what a shocker

what's new ?

I'm not really sure what people were expecting... look at patch 5.4. It was:
- new MSQ
- new side story
- new raid tier
- new crafted DoW/M gear
- new tomestones
- new/modified treasure map dungeon
- new triple triad cards

Anyone that has been playing this game since pre-EW and definitely pre-ShB should be aware that patch cycles are very much formulaic. And if someone was expecting something else, then they probably aren't aware that this game has been like this since 2013.

You are missing some MASSIVE additions in 5.4:

Save the Queen: Blades of Gunnhildr: Third chapter
Resistance Weapons upgrades
Adventuring Forays: Delubrum Reginae
