The problem I keep seeing in these threads is people comparing XIV to when they started the MMOs they reference. Considering the language of this forum in particular, that's not really comparing like-aged MMOs. A popular comparison is XI, people touting how it had alot of content at launch compared to XIV. This is wholly untrue as XI didn't launch how people seem to think it did. It LAUNCHED in Japan on the PS2 with no expansions to speak of. It was RELEASED outside of Japan over a year later, months after the launch of it's first expansion Rise of the Zilart. We, right now, are in that period between the launch of XIV and the release of it's first expansion. Of course there's not alot of end game content, they didn't have alot of leeway to make it given how busy they were remaking the game Tanaka tried to force-feed us.
