My point still stands. Within 2 years, there were 2 full expansion packs.

True, but in those two years they weren't making a whole new game while maintaining a game they were planning on throwing away.

The sad reality is 1.x isn't "Final Fantasy XIV" anymore, it's "Thank For Not Filing A Class Action Law Suit Fantasy XIV."

This is why I hope E3 features more than a trailer. We need to see just how different 2.0 can be.
