So what exactly is driving the developers to keep going?

The sudden delay in Endwalker moved Savage deep into holiday season when many people aren't available to raid.

What kinda holidays were you celebrating on the 4th of January 2022? Y'know, the release date of the patch that unlocked the Savage version of Asphodelos.

Yes I'm sure all these people are just making up their issues. You're welcome to search this in multiple recruitment discords, balance, reddit and see people talking about this issue + frantically recruiting new people. People talked about this not just on the day of the announcement btw but for multiple weeks as statics broke up because of the sudden change.



You don't even raid so why are you pretending like you know what happened?

Then again, casual players do very much like to feel that they are always correct despite not doing any of the content.

Random stuff

You didn't answer the question. I'm curious about the 4th of January holiday.

Never heard of Orthodox Christmas?

Orthodox Christmas is always on January 7th, not the 4th.

I knew some pedant would try this, so it's fitting it'd be you. You do realise there's always a lead up to holidays like Christmas (hence, "holiday season" - it's common for people to book time off around the actual day), and if you're doing savage, most people aren't going to clear it same day, right? So there needn't even have been a holiday around the 4th, but as it just so happens, there is.
