Final Fantasy 16? Sweet. Tell me, do I become the dancer of my dreams in the future?

And well, yeah, any new launch is somewhat devoid of content. Arguably, Final Fantasy XIV has tons of it. It's just that it's not used. Beastmen strongholds? Travelled through once to unlock the Primals Hard mode, nothing again. Dungeons below the level cap? There could've been hard modes and we'd have like 15 dungeons at level 50 to do!

Also, allow me to give a new perspective on the lack of content to the usual "omg wtf im bored crowd". Imagine if we demanded that every new MMORPG that came out had comparable content to WoW. So we want like 50-odd dungeons, 20-odd raids and whatnot. Sure, we could ask for it, but do know that designing content takes time. If Final Fantasy XIV was meant to keep adding content until it reached WoW's numbers of dungeons and such, we wouldn't be playing it now. We wouldn't even have the joy of a beta to participate in. Final Fantasy XIV would be stuck in a perpetual state of development because people keep demanding that it lives up to the amount of content that other competitors have.

Sure enough, we finally get 50 dungeons and 20 raids. Except the year is 2018. And it's a beta instead of release candidate. And the other competing MMORPGs have gotten 3 expansions each and added 20 new dungeons and 10 raids in that time. Can you see where I'm going? <3

tl;dr: Demanding WoW-like amounts of content means you wouldn't be playing XIV at the moment. It would be stick in a perpetual development cycle to meet your ludicrous demands, and simply cease to exist at some point.
