Where is all the content?

[Banriikku]

EW has similar amount of contents as previous expansions. If you look at the OP, their problem is not with the lack content itself. And if you look at the post to which that response was directed, the complaint is about the story, not lack of content.

There is nothing to discard if you disagree.

If you say you don't like how a particular restaurant makes chocolate ice cream.

I could say in response, I disagree and I like it.
I could also say, well, get ice cream from another restaurant then.

Neither discards the point that you don't like this restaurant's chocolate ice cream.

OKay = we are not talking about the same topic. The topic is "Has EW enough content" your answer is "play something else" in school you would get zero points because you ignore the question and give answer to something that was not asked. At best you think the other side would have more fun with other games and at worst its an attack but in both cases you ignore the question aka the topic the OP wants to discuss here. I cant see how your anwser is providing an answer to something that was not asked or even discussed until you gave this answer or opinion.
The next thing is your explantion warps your point beyond recognition and is just wrong... i dont know but whats your point ? I missing the point i guess... atleast your point.

Oh btw. i disagree with the op and think we have for a 6.05 enough stuff everything else is in the future.

How do you even know they like the game? They didn't indicate that in their post as there was nothing of any substance, only that they think the other person should quit if they don't like direction of the current expansion.

The thing is, it doesn't matter if they like the game or not. They can still make that statement because it's a valid response that does not depend on the person saying it.

Telling others to quit sounds like a bad idea to me TBH. Also, don't be surprise the day you have any problem someone told you to do the same.

Telling others to feel free to play other games is not telling others to quit.

You say similar but I say otherwise.

If you can tell us what makes EW have similar amount of content so far?

By the way I define content as actual developed content made for the game not player made stuff (this is important distinction since you are on Balmung)

You've been here since 2013. Do you not know FFXIV's content cycle since at least Heavensward? We have MSQ, dungeons, trials, raids, hunts, FATEs, crafting/gathering, etc. This is the same as in previous expansions.

You're oversimplifying the OP. In your context, the OP didn't just say they don't like chocolate, they provided feedback to the creator of said icecream that do not like the chocolate because they decided to change to chocolate sourced from a new region that they perceive is lower quality, and that they much preferred when they used chocolate sourced from the another region.

Meanwhile, other people like that chocolate ice cream, so the restaurant has a choice whether they think their ice cream is fine, and if so, the consumer also has a choice in going to another restaurant.

You might think that the topic is about lack of content from the title. I did too. But as I said earlier in the thread, the OP doesn't actually complain about lack of content.

Complaining about gearsets, music, zone sizes, voice acting, and server queues is not complaining about whether EW has enough content.

Either way, whether there is indeed not enough content or whether you just don't like the content that is in the game because of some aesthetic reasons like music or voice acting, saying to play something else is still a valid response because that's how you get more content that you enjoy. There is no need to limit the content you play in video games to FFXIV, and that's what Yoshida also said, as has been quoted earlier in the thread.

In the context that get usually used it is. Anyway this whole thing is silly. Imagine people being told "just go play other game" if you think raids should have a more accessible mode for everyone to enjoy the plot behind them. Or, just play that other game that has a better glamour system instead of wanting improvement for what we already have, since you know... is the game you prefer of the two.

And yes, I picked those specific examples knowing the average "go play another game" agree with that stuff or benefited from it.

Different players, different priorities, different opinions and different complains. Up to devs to decided what to do with the received feedback.

It is one thing when the players tell each other that, how ever when there is less content in each expansion, and the director of the game is saying to go play a different game that is another story.
This game has seriously lacked in content with each additional expansion, the number of dungeons we got post MSQ in ARR is more than the total number of dungeons we got in SHB.
Everyone that complained about raids should be more accessible got there way with normal mode raids. If you have a problem with harder content not being accessible to you, perhaps you should try harder at the game as you obviously are not able to do the content.

You've been here since 2013. Do you not know FFXIV's content cycle since at least Heavensward? We have MSQ, dungeons, trials, raids, hunts, FATEs, crafting/gathering, etc. This is the same as in previous expansions.

Some people may see this as a good thing, but it can also be a problem. We are 5 expansions in and this formula has become way to repetitive. To the point where the dungeons even feel uninspired and boring. Every dungeon is now 2 trash groups > Boss > Repeat.
