"Revamp/Rework" obsession

[Auryan]

its not complicated. They are spending absurd amounts of time and resources doing things no one or little to no one is asking for.

Who asked for a gathering collectables revamp? How is that even remotely relevant. It is perfectly fine as it is.



5.4 is going to add 1-2 dungeons tops, and 1 trial, maybe 2. They arent misleading at all. Especially when the previous expansions had significantly more content.

Translation: content I am not interested in = bad and waste of time. Please tailor every piece of content to my personal tastes, SE.

It's not like this living, breathing MMO changes and flux to keep its base alive is doing exactly that. It has to always be 2015 because change is scary.

You're not sharing "facts" you're clearly ranting.

This game is BARELY reworking or revamping stuff, not even close to what you're making it sound like.
It's one of the areas were Square actually does an amazing job compared to most other MMO devs.
Let's compare with the most popular other MMO. World of Warcraft. The Devs constantly creates new systems for every expansion and then deletes it while barely learning anything of what made it good/bad.
Square does NOT do that. They do small touch ups, Dragoon has pretty much been the same class since HW except that they've fixed some issues with it and they've added a few more abilities. There's very few examples of classes being "remade" so you have to RELEARN it. It has happened but Square very rarely goes there.

This thread is just a mess, especially since you started off with the whole "Square pls dont rework/revamp" stuff only to make it about lack of content? What?
If you want to discuss lack of content then start another thread for that.

Pretty much, we somehow are still stuck in this mentality that 3 dungeons a patch automatically means good content, (Don't get me wrong It would be nice to go back to that on top of everything else, but that seems to be unrealistic at this point) despite the attempts to diversify.

We had gotten Deep Dungeons, Eureka, Bozja for combat as well as a lot of content done to ensure that crafting and gathering isn't considered side content (it still kinda is, but a lot of strides had been made to mitigate that) such as the Firmament, Deliveries, Ocean Fishing, Diadem, etc.
