I guess it's time

snip.

They have never really tried to shake up the formula..its been tomes since day 1 of 2.0 Those new things such as diadem, palace of the dead and aquaplois are not going to fix the core issue of the game. It this formula truly is fine..why did so many people I know who played XI and 1.x the entire duration, gone and never came back?

Honestly when people quit, they always tell me because of the lockouts, tomes and nothing to do. Diadem could be great yeah, but they just kinda left it there for now. Maybe Palace of the Dead will help a bit, but it is still just a small, tiny fix in this whole..thing. Simply put, this game struggles with longevity.

And as I said a couple pages back, there are plenty of ideas given for over 3 years now and they continue to ignore them. Again, pop tier NM was a popular one here and on the JP side. Just one of many ideas. The fact that the gear has such boring stats (That was another suggestion, interesting stats), ilvl just keeps increasing (Yet another suggestion, throw in a little bit of horizontal progression and longevity), things come out and are DOA (dead on arrival) , there is still many issues here...

I really do not feel they are trying, in fact are back peddling by shooting down every good idea from NA and JP side alike. They are trying to add things into the same formula, but ignoring the bigger issue at hand. Well anyway just my thoughts...

and AGAIN like I keep saying over and over, there is 0..ZEROOOO FC content in this game still and the game is 3 years old now! You could say workshop...but that doesnt last, isnt really battle content, and only if your FC has a house. Mine did the workshop really quickly. There is also nearly 0 open world group content..there is many things they can add but they just choose not to.
