How is anyone fine with the 4-month patch delivery schedule?

[Vespar]

Its 4 months. If folks cant wait that long then go play other games, work, go outside get some air. Re-evaluate your priorities and focus on yourself a bit, I dunno.
The developers DESERVE some breathing room and personal time too!
It's been one hell of a ride they've given us thus far and I am more than willing to let them take whatever extra time they need to polish or rest or whatever they gotta do if it means this game will be just as amazing with the new content as its been this whole time.

Relax and give them some space D:

this. people dont understand that the developers are human too, not slaves made to constantly pump out content. good content takes time to make. id rather have to wait longer than have something rushed and it be absolute shit

I’d believe this if we saw actual content upgrades from the huge money bags they earned from Shadowbringers, but we actually saw a decline in content in Shadowbringers and in Endwalker, we are literally missing a dungeon set on release and the tataru glam is just a reused set. Like cmon now. We’re what, 4 expansions in, and they’re still reusing gear whilst at the same time not even making it dyable.

What dungeon set is missing? Also there isn't a direct correlation between a game becoming more popular to their requirement to automatically add in more content. Yoshi-P even verbally said it was a struggle to find more programmers in JP. Tataru glam? You mean a coat? Sure I guess they could have added in a new coat, but are people really upset at that? It's a jacket. I didn't even use the thing. If it makes you feel better you got a unique set when entering Elpis.

Edit: Wait, you mean the 89 dungeon set? They gave us AF at 89 in it's place so you actually used it for a bit. You used the AF set in more dungeons this expansion than past expansions.

The level 89 dungeon. We’d normally get a dungeon set for it but because they made the artifact gear obtained at 89 they decided not to give us the set. I bring up the tataru glam because typically we’re given it every expansion and it’s always been a unique gear set. Yet we didn’t get one in Shadowbringers and now in Endwalker we got…a reused coat. The elpis glam is unique yes but we’re always given some form of new glam set like that, it’s nothing new. We got the crystarium glam in ShB, imperial set in SB and so on. I wasn’t speaking purely on it becoming popular. I was speaking on it breaking record sales and somehow giving us less. I understand they need more people on the team but they’ve had years.

You are really grasping at straws here mate. We got the AF set early so we'd actually use it, we used it in more dungeons in EW than ShB. I'm sure more people felt better going into the final dungeon and fight in their AF gear than they would in some of the dungeon gear, it just felt better. Again, why are we complaining about a coat, it's a coat. The last "unique" set you mentioned didn't even make sense why we were getting it. At least "here's a coat cause it's cold" makes sense. I swear you have been in a coma and forgot there was a pandemic, there was a shortage of people and technology, Soken was writing music through f*cking CANCER, like c'mon man, give them a break. EW was amazing, no one other than you is sad about a coat and a single dungeon set(btw the lvl 79 set was just a rehash of another set so it's not like it was wildly unique), and 6.1 itself is set to offer a lot in comparison to what we got in ShB. Quality > Quantity.

What is it offering that ShB didn’t give us? ShB gave us an Ultimate. ShB gave us an ex trial. We were losing content in ShB long before the pandemic and please for the love of god, stop grasping at the pandemic excuse. They specifically delayed the expansion half a year to account for it and they themselves stated they were working at 90-95% efficiency before said delays. It’s not just about the gear sets lmao. It’s the fact that since ShB, the expansion that made the most money and before covid, we’ve been seeing downgrades. Whether it be them cutting dungeons,cutting deep dungeon,hildibrand, primal weapons etc. We are 4 expansions in the game and like i said before and you didn’t address, they are still reusing gear whilst not even making it dyable. Look at the level 87 dungeon set. As for the artifact gear comment, we only used it with one extra dungeon than we did in ShB. We had the artifact gear before the final ShB dungeon lol.

Also, it is extremely disingenuous to try to use Soken and his cancer as some kind of argument. He isn’t the only composer or music person lmao. You do know that don’t you?EW being amazing is entirely subjective and there are many who disagree with that statement.

Finally, I was waiting for the Cancer comment.
