so lets talk about reusing gear sets

[Strika23]

When FFXIV is on top of the MMO world right now, they should avoid pulling these types of things. Usually in the past when they bring back old sets, they will mix them up for new jobs to use and make them dyeable versions. They didn't do that this expansion. They brought back the ascian gear sets from SHB, but left them undyable. Why?

I don't know why they keep introducing gear that isn't dyeable, and then the sets that do dye usually dye like crap. For example, the new red mage chest piece dyes the cloth and leaves the cape a dark blue. But why? If I want to dye the armor, why is there a huge chunk of it left as a random (usually hard to match) color? Also the white mage set, why does the red HAVE to stay on the dress? I don't understand who is behind these decisions, but the dye system and glamour system need a MAJOR rework.

Not to mention there's been no new PVP sets since the beginning of SHB, in the past each expansion has 2-3 pvp sets.

Also give reasons to grind dungeons for good looking new gear. Why do the 89 and 90 dungeons have no new gear?

They blame it on covid which I don't accept as a valid reason. IT has never really had issues working from home unless the staff is lazy and I'm pretty sure that Japanese workers have a much stronger mindset. I understand music since Soken had to recover from cancer and even then, he was working while in the hospital. He's a beast! But for the rest of the expansion, what happened? Maybe their workflow relied heavily on being near each other / working in the same room? I don't know if they had to work from home much but I get if it were a month or two late for adjusting but, it was about 6 months passed due and the expansion felt rushed despite its size. It didn't have the quality seal that you would expect them to have. It was/still is buggy, has a lot of clipping and rendering issues, outfits are reused, many features that were to be released for 6.0 were slated for a much later release.

Maybe we expected too much because Shadowbringers was such an amazing release, it set the bar so high it couldn't be beat?
