One dungeon per patch!?

[reivaxe]

Just out of curiosity, which are the big meaty additions you'd like to see more of, and what spares it the inefficiency of dungeon design (e.g. time spent on soundtracks, new enemy models, new maps, new terrain, new doodads, and arguably new gear models)?

I wouldn't add gear to the list, they can and do release gear with or without the dngs. Gear and glam is more so the reward or carrot at the end of the stick that is a dng (Tis why you get fewer chest from trust)... they use gear and glam as the motivator for most all content so if gear work aint going to a dng then it's going to something else. Or "Oh, hey! Here's some new crafted gear (that would have been in a dng)!.

If you want a simple answer that checks off all your boxes nice and clean ... I legit point to everything they already told us we're getting. Give me this new fishing boat thing I'm not gonna use (cause I don't fish) but I know others who love fishing will partake in. Give me this new Ishgardian Restoration (and housing zone) and Diadem update that I fully plan to partake in. Give me more new PVP maps cause I LOVE the newest one and I want more PVP. Give me more Eureka like content cause it's legit 1 of the best things to touch this game. Give me more Deep Dngs aka HoH and PoTD.

I consider these all meaty content worthy of a decrease in "Mob tunnels" I have to push through for glam and tomes personally.

If you want a more selective thing I'm sure many on the forum want that def checks some but not all the boxes, I go to an old fav.
What needs modelers, riggers, texture and concept artist, tons of QA, animators and sound design/ Voice work? New character models aka races (or in this case the missing genders. Male Viera/ Female Hrothgar).

I've long given up hope of having a female Hrothgar in this game because everything they have said on the topic boils down to "we just can't handle releasing the amount of content at the rate we currently are if we have to support more player models". Welp, reducing the amount of dngs they have to pump out would certainly come across as a reduction in the amount of content from patch to patch. I felt there was no way to bother even hoping for the missing genders without a decrease in SOMETHING cause of how they talk about it ... and now they're taking another slash at what I would call the most time consuming yet least impactful content in the game because they realize that there's already a ton of dngs and it's not the type of content that keeps people engaged.

Maybe I like umbrellas more than corridors.

It's meemed on but it's legit one of the "coming soon" features I'm most excised about.
Prob cause I'm the kinda person who has their character take shelter when it's raining if they're just chilling and not doing anything.
