Quantity vs Quality Updates

[Itseotle]

I know that many still feel like they don't have a lot to do in the game, and they want more content. But do we? Or do we really want fleshed out quality content that would keep us coming back to it? I've seen many posts in live letters where SE's reasoning for not doing something is that it would be too much work, or too much time to make it happen.

Recycled content is not fleshed out quality content. I am sorry I want to love this game but this same pattern they are following is boring. Patch drops and you get 2 new dungeons (Not 3 cuz of diadem woo!), 4-6 story fetch quests, a new tome to grind and cap every week by repeating everything you've already spammed and grown tired of, and either hunts (again) or a once-a-week 24-man raid. The content gets stale pretty quickly to people who play a few hours each day, and I am not even talking the hard-core players. The content cycle is so predictable and its never interesting for more than a couple weeks, when patches are 3-4 months inbetween. The time wait is fine. I'm cool with that. But the delivery for the wait is always sub-par. Its not the content itself they release that is terrible, its it's longevity. What "quality content" has been released lately? This recent patch brought us 2 new expert dungeons that you spam every day, once-a-week 8-man raid, and crafting recipes.

If I sound angry I'm not. I'm frustraited. I play this game almost every day, sometimes a little, sometimes a lot, but I'm sad to see it essentially stuck in a circle of unchange as the world around it leaves it by. You know we still can't do simple things like open our FC list while in dungeons? You know how many OTHER games have "figured it out"? Why is this game so archaic?

Speaking of those 2 experts a week.... wtf is up with Diadem? Thought they dropped development on dungeons to focus on "other content" such as diadem?
