Zepla: Endwalker is the Worst FFXIV Expansion I have played

[Shurrikhan]

It's the same general design cadence they've been doing since at least SB and really since HW, but "suddenly" it's "stale".

So that design cadence should be considered still "fresh" even after being done for 4 expansion in a row (and having slowed over time)?

Those complaints haven't appeared "suddenly". They've increased pretty linearly with the time spent under those repeated roadmaps.

But then you have the people saying it has less content who also didn't like Eureka/Bozja, despite that being the only real difference...

This bit, though, I'll agree can be a bit of a headscratcher... if the opinion is given only per one's own (self-)interests.

It the repeatable content from before wasn't one's cup of tea before, than the content of value to that person hasn't changed by losing it, though they can still miss the friends who now play only per patch release because there's no content for them, either, now.
