November? really?

3.0 is the VERY FIRST time we could do L51-60 content. If you expected more for endgame, you have unrealistic expectations. Still, 2x Extreme, Alex NM, Alex Savage, Fractal/Neverreap isn't terrible. During level cap increase patches (ie, expansion releases) you should expect most content to be during the leveling, not after. That comes later. This is essentially the only time they could realistically add L51-59 content so it makes sense the focus was there for 3.0. Expansions are for leveling, patches are for endgame.

I get what you're saying, but A Realm Reborn was L1-50 content... It had more leveling and story content, on top of more endgame content... That is exactly why people are complaining that Heavensward is just A Realm Reborn, but less.

Again... 2.0 pretty much had this exact problem, minus the delay due to vacation... There was a lack of content and much complaining, though this was mostly passed off, as Crystal Tower was actually delayed until 2.1, so that was the "excuse"... When they released A Realm Reborn, they got (or should have got) a sense of how quickly their playerbase consumed content, and what they wanted. When they released Heavensward, they gave us pretty much the same thing, but less...

I can't reasonably look at what happened when A Realm Reborn was released, and fathom why the same "mistakes" were repeated, but here we are... Glad they're finally getting a vacation, but the timing sure does suck...
