And... that's what we got. Should you be surprised? *cue retaliatory post about how poll is not valid due to age or whatever other reason*

Yoshida has said before that the current system makes large scale Pve difficult to implement, and that it will be possible with the new engine. So how about we wait for that, and then complain if it never actually happens?
OK fair enough on the players poll saying we wanted more instances. That being said, that was more instanced content, not only. Strongholds are nice, but its a bit too serious. Filler/frivolous content is what is needed.

I have been quite supportive of this game for a long long time. So I have waited, and waited and waited. It seems I'm always waiting on this game to get better. Here and there they make steps in the right direction, and sometimes take steps in what I think are the wrong direction. How long should I continue this wait and see approach without feedback from SE even giving some kind of direction of open world content post 2.0?
