SE themselves told us in each odd number patch we would be getting exciting new content but here we are looking at the same stuff as usual but its actually less then what was in 2.0 and even 3.0 series patches.

The concern I have is in 5.0 they are going to cut content even more and people are going to defend them for it.
I will start saying that i played FFXI back in the day.

Secondly, you can't really compare XIV to XI for a simple reason: The playerbase was diferent back then, the same players that enjoyed XI won't invest the time needed to play like it was before because it's too time demanding/consuming. And in the end, today, because i still follow it, i still play it it time to time only because of the story, the end game it's just as repetitive as in every other game. So no, you are not going to win that argument with me.

You cannot add in every odd patch 'exciting new content' because it's juts... It can't be done.

Finally, the patch is not even out yet. I got the feeling that the EX trial of Shinry it's not going to be "More of the same."
