7.3 is insufficient (Relic,Deep Dungeon and Cosmic Exploration has to carry 4 Months)

I agree with your comment about the length of content. It's getting to the point I feel like I do everything the day it's out and then there's nothing except things that are dailies, and I'm not even no-lifing what they give us.
7.2 was a step in the right direction, even if it didn't quite meet my expectations.
But if 7.3 is like 7.1, I'll end up having everything done within the first week, and then I'm in my (unfortunately) normal thing lately of standing there scratching my head going "now what?"
Would have been nice to see at least Beastmaster added on. I'll reserve my judgement for the Deep Dungeon until I see it. And hey, at least there's maps for me (but I know not everyone likes those).

This is very much where I'm coming from.

It's not like I want to be married to the game. I barely log on outside raids or to do things randomly just for fun, I play other things.

And I don't want to constantly HAVE to log on. I just think a patch cycle should be broken like how it was in 7.2

Because this patch had

New MSQ, New Dungeon, New Trial (that's all week 1 stuff) + New normal raid yipee

next week was EX so you do EX for a week.

Next week Savage starts yippee you do savage for a bit or the New Unreal.

(pause) (doing savage)

New cosmic exploration woohoo (still doing EX's and Savage)

enjoying cosmic exploration (still doing savage)

doing a bit more cosmice exploration. (still doing savage)

(pause) (doing savage)

Occult crescent! Oh wow this is fun! (Doing savage)

Still leveling jobs in OC yay! (doing savage)

getting my relic, leveling other phantom jobs a bit (doing savage)

That's sort of what I want for patches... I want bursts of things to do that don't necessarily obligate me to have to log in.

The patch is awesome for crafters I suppose since they get one more Beast Tribe and Planet for Cosmic Exploration - And I will be engaging with that content. At least Cosmic anyway for a bit.
But I can't say the same for Deep Dungeon. I've never really even gotten to a top floor of a DD before. I've at most poked my head into each one.
I don't know if this Deep Dungeon with a optional Level 100 4-Man boss is going to be something that many people will even do.

It enters into that weird realm like Chaotic. For the people who did Chaotic - supposedly loved it but it came with all these flaws of being a PF exclusive content with all the problems of PF.
The New DD is asking you to get to the highest floor... I mean maybe that can work but it's been geared towards solo players for so long iunno. I don't think that carries you through a patch. Maybe I'm wrong and maybe the Relic in some way requires you to do the deep dungeon that might change my opinion. (I'd like for one new Variant/Criterion to be in here with some gear or beastmaster)
