I do get where you are coming from. I've been frustrated of several things myself... but sadly that is how capitalism works... money always gets priority... I think its a terrible idea to put the customer 2nd though... I think they should be on equal par as making money which according to me is the most successful mix possible.
It's not just SE that does this though, most game companies aim for the money first. If it were up to me the characters would at least have voices... sad that you get to choose your characters voice but never hear more then grunting or moaning xD And the fact that most quests are voiceless doesn't make it any more immersive either.

I'm a realist who's been subbed 8 years now. Why? I host a community so I just log in to have fun with people I care for.
I honestly don't get why some people appear to treat you hostile for sharing how you feel about the game... listening to you is the least we can do, its basic human decency.

You are just another player that is frustrated that a lot of things about the games remain untouched or unfinished (Se's focus in the wrong place).. logical response.
Still, things have always been like that.. its in human nature to think about themselves first before thinking about others.
But you can find fun in that too... afterall its an MMO game and as the name implies there's a lot of people you could meet. I recommend meeting up with people on discord in a voice channel, makes it more enjoyable. THAT or just chat with them in game with good music running in the background (I got sick of the in game music long ago xD).

Ofcourse no one is asking you to sub if you don't feel like it but there's factors people never tap into... the community spirit of an MMO game is a lot better then the actual game enjoyment... it surpasses all expectations. Heck to me this game is like chatgpt or second life
Maybe you simply need to join an FC that can make you laugh and enjoy yourself.

I usually have netflix open or discord and just post memes or chill watching series or a movie while talking to people in between, decorating my house, doing some recruitment... small things... even if only to max out everything there is in the game as some sort of reputation gathering..
If you tried all that however then its pointless to keep forcing yourself to like it... you may simply be burned out from the game so in this situation its best to forget about the game for now.. play what you want to play and maybe we'll see you back here in the future if they add something new that can get you interested again.

Whatever you decide to do, it's your choice and a respected one.
Keep into consideration thought that not everyone "cares" about the frustrations people like you and me might have.. They just want to have fun and while they know the game isn't perfect, they don't need it to be. Sometimes its "good enough" for people.
