Patch seems rather... small

[Leigaon]

We had a couple dungeons that were actually a bit of a challenge, AK and Pharos come to mind, until people cried they couldn't play half asleep and spam one move and beat a dungeon.

These two are good examples of why we can't have nice things. Even now Pharos has the mob that increases the damage dealt to the tank, seems to be the last thing to die and when people do not dodge..it still hurts. Or when they gather up all those spirits and they banish III at the same time. The dungeons are designed to do it already, dungeons 50+ though they're just not adjusted to it.

Most of the effort in the content patch has gone into fluff content, this is now the course SE wishes to take from now on, do not be surprised of the combat content sees a reduction or any content that requires effort for that matter, never seen a playerbase that wants so much fluff content before and its propagated into the game and everything else has been dismissed, this game is basically FF14- Barbie reborn

Be happy you do not play a certain other MMORPG which releases less content less frequently and is infamous for a certain patch which had a selfie-cam as it's main feature... Or pretty much any MMORPG on the market to be completely honest. The patches are not expansion packs, they are not going to add entire new continents or something like that. That is what we have expansions for.

That an MMORPG is mostly grinding the same content over and over is pretty much standard, but this game has much content to grind.

What is the problem with glamour items and housing? This is a social game, and those features are highly appealing. There is, however, some effort-taking content, but close to no one does that content. What should they focus on do you think? There is also challenging raiding content for those who desires that.

Personally I feel like they added a lot of quality of life changes with this patch that we've been waiting for a long time now. As far as content goes, the new savage mode raids and sophia ex will keep me busy for a little while. I do think that the questing was a little bit lax this time but honestly I don't mind that too much.

[raelgun]

The playerbase has asked for proper harder modes of dungeons along side their easy mode variants, not the 'hard' modes they release because they are not hard, they are simply reusing assets which in it self is not a bad thing to speed up development but calling it hard is a joke. People have also asked for proper 8 man dungeons, like praetorium but with drops and no cut scenes. I would be happy if they just made a proper tuned mode for that and added it into the patch. Did we get any of that? nope, what this patch brought instead was fluff.

Please hear me out before you start firing at me.

The reason I say this is because I have been playing for less than 4 hours, and I have already cleared the entirety of the new main story, the Scholasticate, finishing Hildibrand, beat Sophia and about to unlock Alexander - The Creator.

It took me 2 hours with the last Destiny update. And that cost me an additional $40. I'd say even a few hours is good enough.

Oh come on, you don't pay a sub in Destiny and arguably they have more content of substance in that game.

Content of substance? Have you even played Destiny? There's no substance at all.

...I'm sorry, but what? You get what, one raid every five years? (note that was hyperbole)

And all of this while slowly reading all text, not dashing and teleporting like a madman, watching all cut-scenes, taking breaks, having my meals, etc.

I call bs. It's taken me all day to do just MSQ, Gubal, Scholasticate, and Hildibrand...
