Not exactly surprising, they took the arguably most popular version of their game and made more playstyles actually viable.
People have been asking for classic+ for a while and this might be them testing the waters.
So it's the opposite of XIV, where devs only really cater to 10% of the base who have nullified classes into a homogenous blob. I've been saying this but XIV players don't went to hear it-- WoW is drawing people back in. XIV is becoming dull when many ongoing titles today are actually changing things around or exceeding expectations in some other way. XIV is copy pasting and simplifying because "muh consistency".
And even with a brand new class, 7.0 seems primed to dive head first into the safe zone, if it's even possible for the game to get any further into it.

Blizzard had to take some risks and shake things up, given the last couple of expansions were....divisive, to say the least. SE's been complacent for a while. We'll see how that goes for them in Dawntrail.
I am not expecting much after NA and EU Fanfest unless they go crazy at JP I just don't think they will push the boat out. We also know what we are getting and it's pretty much the same formula but hey at least we get a new exploratory zone because for some reason they thought VC dungeons and a DD could fill that void.
My hope is Blizzard popping off this year and doing a lot of good things will help push SE to try new things as well with DT after seeing their primary competition do it. Guess we'll see.
Would it be okay if SE release less dungeons, less savage raids in exchange of different types of contents just to shake up the "formula" people keep complaining about?
If you want extra contents, just ask for moooore. That's what players do best.
Nah they just need to invest more into their cash cow before it starts to dry up.
Lately, I've been thoroughly enjoying Endwalker—there's just something about the storyline and environments that resonates with me. Of course, everyone's got their own take on it, and that's part of what makes the gaming community so diverse, right?
Playing as my Roegadyn has been an absolute blast. Speaking of which, I'm eagerly anticipating what Dawntrail has in store, especially in the realm of new Roegadyn characters. Here's to hoping for some incredible additions to the mix, perhaps a few towering, burly allies to spice up our adventures!
