Patch 8.0 - How long is too long to wait?

[ViinaS]

2027 would be unacceptable imo.

They can and should put it out sooner, but that would require a few things:
- Sit down the entire team and work on 8.0 from the get go, no lending manpower to other projects
- Demand an allocation of funds that befit FFXIV and make SE clear that is FFXIV falls SE may do so as well when the project responsible for half their revenue crashes.

So... the basics for developing important content like the expansion of your golden goose.
I would even say the bare minimum to deliver quality content and... I don't think things are dire enough for them to do just that.

Any extended extra time to get 8.0 out has to be clearly communicated and due to important reworks, content and additions, not
"we need more time cause reasons, lol, aren't you idiots used to it by now?"
