    Just like math has orders of operation, game devs have priorities so that they can build the rest of the game off of the base establishment. Sometimes you have to do one thing before you do another, or else you'd have to go back and start all over again. Hence the way FFXIV was on release.

    In FFXIV's case, the Battle System is the Base Establishment to a building. After that, they can start building more floors (Content/Job System/etc.). After that, they can decorate everything ex. Jump, New Armor Designs, etc.

    I know you cannot compare game development to building a skyscraper, but in the sense of priority, this is the best way it can be done, or else you may find yourself creating extra work, and I'm sure as shit nobody wants to wait any longer for SE.
