This game is on a terrible state right now.

This expansion has been really lackluster in terms of patches, there is literally nothing to do, and most of the stuff added is a joke.

Maybe just maybe if they had listened to those of us who rang the alarm bells back when they announced 4 month delays between patches, pointed out that beast tribes being delayed to .5 patches was unusual, that this relic grind is a joke not to mention the content its attached to, the story in the base game and in the patches is objectively the most controversial one seeing as how we've never had 800 page threads criticizing the story before, dead on arrival Criterion dungeons, the fact that we lost exploratory zones to island sanctuary...

...we'd have a decent expansion instead of one that has caused this much disappointment across all sectors of the playerbase.

"all sectors of the playerbase"?

The majority of people who play any game don't participate in online discussion on forums, Twitter, Reddit, Facebook, Discord, etc. The silent super majority is a well known fact.

This is why the Devs of pretty much any game rarely actually make content in-line with what the online community says they want. Devs know the're not representative of the general playerbase and instead use metrics/data harvested directly from the game to see what most people playing the game want to do/are doing.

Patch intervals are pretty much standard across all MMO's.

pointed out that beast tribes being delayed to .5 patches was unusual

Nope. Again not a big deal.

that this relic grind is a joke

You havent seen the next stage yet

to mention the content its attached to, the story in the base game and in the patches is objectively the most controversial one

Aside from this tiny hivemind no one has said that at all. No one on any server I am on has said that so...who exactly is your source on this?

seeing as how we've never had 800 page threads criticizing the story before

Using this forum as any kind of metric is a very bad idea.

dead on arrival Criterion dungeons

You DO know there are more on the way? They are not DOA,. the hyperbole here is quite amusing

the fact that we lost exploratory zones to island sanctuary...

We did? Where did you see this? Who said so? Exploratory zones have some major flaws, one of which is the issue of future proofing.

...we'd have a decent expansion instead of one that has caused this much disappointment across all sectors of the playerbase

Oh? This meme again? All sectors of the playerbase....yeah this is a huge reach and your usual "I speak for everyone" attitude. Pro tip, Aveyond, you speak for no one but yourself.

Fully agreed. Everything is fine, this is normal, just do the usual stuff, play other games, just wait until the next patch, this is an echo chamber, no one else has a problem, etc.

By the way, how are your other games going?

Why is the same excuse everyone uses?

The relic step released in 6.35, So there should be content revolving around it in 6.35

'It will be good later' is complete copium at this point, Two identical steps 6 months apart is pathetic.

Respectfully, speak for yourself and don’t push your opinion on everyone. I have 0 problems with the state of the game, 0 problems with Endwalker, and I wouldn’t change a single thing about it. I play it daily for hours and always have something to do.

Ahhh, Balmung-shaming, are we? You can’t believe that somebody actually enjoys the game, so you choose to reply with ad-hominem attacks. You must be proud of yourself.
