And using that as a reason to turn vitriol their way. They can hate the game if they want. They don't get to hate other players for disagreeing or try to intimidate them into not speaking up.
    Viera, hrothgarh not getting unique hairstyle to their race and just receiving previous hair styles at a slow rate to point where the devs are cutting corners so much that the are removing body parts from the characters where modders that aren't getting paid have solved this issue years go. Yeah they really do care about the quality of game because they know some players will accept this crap and I am happy people are calling them out on this.

I think it's more about them not wanting to put in the work required, viera/hrothgar not being a priority, or simply being unable to do so due to scheduling and resource allocation.

    Yeah that excuse kinda went out the window for me as soon as I found out 3rd parties had made 75% of hats work on them, and not only that, had custom textures for ear holes, metallic robot ears etc. Assuming that's a 1 or 2 person team making that I can't find any excuse of how Square can't do it in over 2 years.

    I agree. I think they announced it way too early and have been rather vague in what we can do in the Island Sanctuary and as a result people's expectations have grown. Many think it will be like Animal Crossing/Harvest Moon, although I expect it will be very barebones with limited selections in how we can design things assuming we can even decorate a house there.

    I think that at the end of the day, I'm still satisfied with FFXIV despite its flaws. I'm not one to take my opportunities and rewards for granted because people tend to forget that they don't know what they got until it's gone. I've learned that lesson in this game and in real life.

    My biggest issue with the game right now is that we are what? 5 days into the new patch and I have cleared the alliance raid, unreal, ex, done some pvp, finished the MSQ, and this with only a few hours per evening ( I have barely played for the past 2 days).
    So now I have 4 months full of nothing but a few weapons to farm (1 hour/weapon), 30 min/week alliance raids, 15 min unreal and slowly ( very slowly) climbing trought the pvp reward track.
    6.15 isn't even promising, because this time, we won't have Ishgard restoration, but more 1 time cutscenes content with 10 min/day beast tribe quests.
    And no, I don't do Ultimate. Maybe I should, but it's not for me and 99% of the playerbase.

    Where's the midterm content SE? Why, for example, adding relic weapons on .2 patch when we are in a dire need of lvl 90 content on .1 patch?

    At least for me, Ive just been doing a lot of side content that I missed as well as leveling, doing some hunts. Working on getting some BiS for my jobs. Started on previous relic weapon glams and Im still trying to progress through the pvp series. Theyre just still a lot for me that I have to tackle with and this is with my current playing everyday for like 6 or 7 hours straight.

Everything I'd heard so far was that it was another success.
    The praise for Endwalker's story is pretty universal for the most part, outside of a small handful of forum posters overstating their personal dislike of the story and pretending it represents some kind of silent majority.

    Mostly I see people giving high praise for Endwalker's story, with the caveat that it doesn't quite match up to Heavansward or Shadowbringers, but it's nowhere near the universal consensus of being "less good" like Stormblood's story is.

    Sorry haven’t been able to post cuz i was at my post limit lol. Wanted to let you know in case my silence painted it otherwise i wasn’t annoyed at all by people talking about the story, like i said before i mentioned it in my original post anyhow so it makes sense it would be brought up eventually! I’m happy we were able to have a peaceful conversation about it without it devolving to snark or passive aggressiveness(can’t say the same for the other posters that entered the fray though) but i enjoyed our convo and wouldn’t have minded continuing it had people not expressed major disinterest and annoyance.

    Anyhow though, in regards to island sanctuary other people are mentioning, i think even the devs themselves stated to not get your hopes up and that it wouldn’t be a substitute for housing. I will say though if they manage to implement instanced housing for it last minute within a patch….that’s a bit of a slap in the face because then it doesn’t seem that complex at all and it makes me wonder why they haven’t done that with housing as a whole(obviously it’s a grander scale but they clearly have the means to do it).

    I dont think its a small handful of forum posters. Im in about 5-6 lore discord servers with about over 100 people each, and most in each one just found the lore and plot developments in EW to be extremely inconsistent. I think even a fair amount of non-lore followers expressed sadness in seeing garlemald in ruins and not getting to explore it in its entirety as well. When i mention the divide being bigger than SB i moreso mean, at least around the time i was playing, the general consensus seemed to be either this story sucks so much, or oh its okay its not as bad as people make it out ot be. Whereas with EW its either oh this story is absolutely amazing or its wow this is the worst story told in this games lifetime. Theres a lot of interesting opinions but i recall a favorite expansion thread and EW was ranked pretty low for even non-lore forum posters.

    I think in the end though it also didnt help that the devs had to answer major lore questions in the QnA because they didnt address them at all in the story itself, the story that was supposed to be ending the arc.
