    You're saying that the OP opinion (and anyone who holds a similiar opinion) can only be valid if they have every "capped" and have nothing to do.
    By that logic, 95% of the playerbase has no right to talk because most of them don't go on to do end game/savage content.
    Just because there are things to do in this game doesn't mean they are engaging or enjoyable.
    It's a valid argument if people like the OP fail to understand the distinction between "nothing to do" and "nothing I want to do". Subtle difference in wording, huge difference in meaning. Not liking the content presented is fine, but it's a disingenuous argument to frame it as if the content doesn't exist at all.

    Exactly this. The patch is not empty. just doesn't have enough of the things the OP wants.

    It's a bad argument. If someone dislikes something, it isn't content for them. That's the equivalent of saying "Go play Lord of Verminion if you're bored!" Don't get me wrong, I disagree with the OP's overall opinion regarding 4.1 but that doesn't mean they can't complain about a lack of content that appeals to them.

    Not really. There is a difference between saying there is no content as opposed to saying there isn't any content I like. How their discontent is framed makes a big difference on how it will be received. I guarantee the first will be blown off by SE as well as many players. The second with the addition of saying what type of content they want to see actually has a chance to change what comes out in the future.
