One dungeon per patch!?

To be fair, they also have a lot of increased costs associated with upgrading back-end systems ever since ceasing PS3 support which is a very positive thing for "future-proofing" the game but I agree it sucks when content has to decrease.

Back-end did not changed, we are still using the same textures quality like we did with ps3 support.
Net code has not changed as well.

They are spending most of the FFXIV money into other projects and dragging Yoshi away from ffxiv.
Thats why we have half baked limited races
Thats why eureka is forgotten
Thats why pvp is a joke
Thats why iconic Nier glamour items are pixelated modeling bugs
Thats why Jobs are getting dumber and dumber and simplified
And thats why we have lost dungeon per patch.

If anyone thinks that we are going to get anything extra in a place of lost dungeon then he is naive, because it will not happen. They are clearly cutting edges of this game budget wherever they could. Today we lost dungeon, tommorow we will get 2 raids instead of 4 just because.

For me personally mmorpg without a solid base dungeons is dead mmorpg, and ffxiv is consequently proving me its all going downhill from this point. I play other mmorpgs as well so i have third person perspective on this game, limiting such a important aspect of the mmorpg is not going to play well for SE at all. There are still a ton of people playing those dungeons, i would even argue the amount of people playing them is much much larger than raids.
