Simplicity over complexity, time to change.

Flashiness sells much better. And having *actual* content helps keep people in game. You know, a lot of people treat it as a *game*, especially those from casual crowd, and not "a gateway to fantasy world". Currently it's a nice looking fantasy game with some flashy thing going around and some hardcore stuff in which nobody really cares about "world and stuff". And I am fine with that, I don't want to be in the land of elves, I want a high quality theme park MMO with cute Mi'qotes.

You have a world of MMO games that cater to your tastes: TERA, BLADE AND SOUL, AION, ATLANTICA, WoW, WildStar, etc. etc. etc.

I'm surprised you are so passionate about defending ARR as generic WoW-clone when you have plethora of other options to migrate to if it ever changed.

But for FF MMO fans ( FFXI, and FFIXV 1.23), this is really the last bastion.
