There has not been a single major patch without a critical issue since Endwalker.

Nothing is going on. It's the result of new things being added to an already huge game. Things are going to inevitably pop up. Also, we have only had one major patch since the expansion launched, the rest have been half patches.

I feel like the only direction this game has taken since launch is up↑. Quality and story↑ , population and popularity ↑↑, people's outrage and blood pressure↑↑↑↑↑↑.
