They Legit started working on Viera and Hrothgar shortly after the release of SB and they only got to a finished enough state to show them recently ... and we STILL gotta wait for them to work on head gear post June.




Adding races is not only time and resources intensive but also puts permanently ongoing strain on the dev team.

They literally said that this is it, this is all they can do ... because with their current work flow they only have the means to do this AND still be able to push out content at the pace they have been doing so far.

In a prefect world we could get more everything. We would get a Tank/ Healer/ DPS every expansion. Relic final forms would always look AMAZING and the MB wouldn't be crap design.
But this aint that. Adding too much strain on the dev team means we suffer in some area. Be it fuller and worse gear designs being released or more non-sense like "Hey, It's Valentines Days! Our yearly event this time is gonna reward you with ... a crappy looking DRK sword and a Cul 2nd hand glam cause we're too busy!" or them deciding to gate off even more glam for the Mog Station to offset the cost.
That's SE's fault for not allocating resources properly COUGHXVSTILLGETTINGSUPPORT2YEARSAFTERRELEASECOUGH not the fanbase for actually expecting full quality on a project, again my biggest issue is the dev team not just releasing full hrothgar is that's where their PASSION was and just saying that. Instead we get "two" gimp'd races that can't even use full gear at launch, this isn't me being entitled I'm just disappointed that we're two expansions in and this game is STILL suffering from resource issues.

I know it's the reality of the situation, and I accept that but I don't think that should equate to a free get out of jail free card from criticism for this still being an issue several years into this game.
