Thread: Patch 3.2 Trailer is Up

I mean, they could go the XI route and not add/balance ANYTHING for up to 6 months. And when they did, it was usually only a bit of story. Looking at you, WotG. Literally took them years to finish up that story line, and updates were very sporadic. Admittedly, they did the same with Seekers of Adoulin.

At least until ToAU. In which case they spent the next few years slowly adding content, every 3-4 months maybe, that wasn't ready for release. Some of which still doesn't exist to this day. Or it flopped horribly like Pankration and the numerous augmentation systems they attempted until Trials of the Magian was added alongside Abyssea.

I actually really love XI, but I'm not blind to it's glaring faults. And if you think it's content was actually unique, you're blind.

Kill trash/gather pop items -> Get access to a boss -> Kill boss -> Possibly get loot -> Proceed to the next tier -> Repeat
or
Wait for a 24/72 hour respawn -> try to claim -> if claimed, kill -> Possibly get loot -> Repeat

Each event had some unique gimics (lamps, cells, zantetsuken, damage immunities) but they were all super similar in every other aspect. And this is exactly how XIV works as well.
