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

They're adding more to it luckily. I'm hoping we get a bonus dungeon sometime hidden at the base of the mountain, and the ability to get an actual house for ourselves built there, even if it's just an open air house (meaning like houses in other areas, you just run in and can go up/down stairs). I really want to be able to move to that Island and free up my housing slot for somebody else.

Ah man, hard yes to that last bit lol.

I believe Islands are an example of feedback listened to (referencing another thread going on right now) because myself, and a few others, have been making some wishes akin to it for some time. Part of that wish was an expansion, as systems allow, to become more and more housing till it basically is (threads made prior to Island even ). Seeing the exterior decorations added is a huge sign that it might be a potential goal, I had big grin when I saw that news.

On that I of course saw their LL on adding other content so I am excited about it and I know they don't intend to abandon it, awesome awesome indeed- though I do hope they can add 'throughout' it and not just at the top (not just level 13, level 14, etc, etc, but also sometimes content that impacts the whole of it or starts at an earlier level where it could help 'fill out' the experience for new players).

In context of the person I responsed to that started the post you responded to, I give Blue Mage as an example where they added a lot on top, a lot of great spells, and to be fair a little at the bottom (particularly the solo skill), but I feel the bottom still needs polish as a lot of the lower level skills (lvl 50 and below) and just the gameplay progress itself (unless you get help) is lackluster (it does change, it's just not.. imo ideal and is like "crawl on your belly through the sandpaper canyon till you get to candy land" and all I can think is "but y tho? Y have sandpaper canyon..?").
