Things are getting worse.

Just seems like everything is falling apart.

Housing.
PVP.
Class design.
Cosmetics/Customizations.

There is a lot good in this game. But the scales are tipping. Hope they get their shit together.

Are you sure about that?

I have been around since ARR and believe me, all of the systems is 1000x better than those days.
All of the systems on this game is not perfect but they have to continue to improved and what not but I think Class Design is my bane right now.
I think Cosmetics/Customization is mostly because of Technical Debt still (need clarification on that).

I seen this game from almost from the beginning to right now and believe me, right now it is at the top or close to top of its peak.

I don't think everything was ever fully apart to begin with. This game more so relied on its community to keep a lot of things functioning. It feels as people are beginning to exploit certain aspects of this game more but it doesn't really feel all that doom and gloom.

I haven't stopped enjoying myself and I think we have a long way to go before most of the playerbase stops enjoying the game too.

It's called slowly boiling the frog, lol. Remember when they started cutting a dungeon per patch for "polish". I do.

Dungeon was cut for Eureka, 4 large maps with tons of bosses and Baldesion Arsenal. Dungeon was cut for Bozja and Daldaria normal+savage. Not "polish".

Hosing - was always bad. If anything housing is great right now with how many housing items we have and how creative housing community is.
PvP - at it's peak right now. Never been better.
Class design - every job is viable, everything is working. People who are nostalgic about good old days always forget how some jobs were literally not viable back in HW.
Cosmetics/Customizations - more hairstyles and gear than we ever had.

Viability does not equal fun, gimme back my assortment of poisons, life draining bubble and Selene (the real Selene, not that glorified recolor) back so I can enjoy playing something other than Black Mage.

Angrily shakes stick

I would argue that being able to play your job is better than not being able to play your job, but I get you. I want my cards back too.

[Equitable_Remedy]

The forum/reddit/discord are getting worse.

The game is fine.
