FF14 has a quantity problem

I mean, I do think the EW MSQ quality is astoundingly high. But the fact that they decided to push it back two weeks to absolutely polish the MSQ (which could also just be a lie to buy them time to figure out server infrastructure) speaks volumes of their overzealous pursuit of perfection to the detriment of efficiency.

This is not a single player game though. I do get that it's story-driven, but money and time spent on unique animation for one cut-scene in the game could be used elsewhere. I much rather prefer your regular nods in cutscenes if it means we're actually getting some meaningful quality gameplay.

I definitely agree. The budget to create stuff like custom animations for eating hamburgers could have been spent elsewhere.
