Makes sense to me, as FFXIV is marketed as story-first. Most negative reviews I've seen praise the battle content while criticising the MSQ. Patch content could indeed salvage the situation but they need to finally release some. The incredibly long patch cycle isn't doing the game any favors. The fact that field operations have been pushed to something like 7.3 is dire. Most people from my FC subbed for a month and they're off playing other games because there is only so much to do in DT unless you're a Savage raider.
