Oh man, I wonder what excuses they will give next.

Still better than the WoW way of just letting people rust and wither away for years without any patches or expansions.
And maybe just take a break? There is no reason why you need to play constantly XIV tbh. except ofc your obsession with the forums.
Well, that and the FOMO house thing. Also WoW might be starting to be a bad example if they follow through with their roadmap for the year and hopefully a change in their mentality with DF.
Might be but after years of playing WoW and finally getting away from the game after the start of BfA i don't give them the benefit of the doubt anymore.
But yeah the housing system is really bad, wish they would just adapt the system of wildstar for it. Where everyone could get a plot, with thousands and thousands of things to place and it was almost as big as limsa...and their servers still managed to not go up in flames. And no FOMO...wish they would set the demolition timer on half a year or so to give people the option to take breaks.
I agree, I tried out DF, it's good but I don't have the time to "play" 3 MMOs. I hope for the people that are playing it that Blizz does follow through. And the FOMO housing demolition timer is pretty antithetical to the good old "Take breaks and play other things"Might be but after years of playing WoW and finally getting away from the game after the start of BfA i don't give them the benefit of the doubt anymore.

You say that, but if it keeps getting pushed, and pushed, and pushed then we're at 6 months between patches (where WoW is right now).
4 months was a good sweet spot, the fact they can't meet this schedule post covid is a resource management issue. It's not like they're reinventing the wheel here. They're mostly re-using the same content schedule (add dungeons, add trial, add 24 person raid, repeat) they've established since HW.
Veteran healers don't care if we need to heal, but right now we don't. We want interesting things to do during the downtime other than a 30s dot and a single filler spell that hasn't changed from lvl 4 to lvl 90.
Dead DPS do no DPS. Raised DPS do 25/50% lower DPS. Do the mechanics and don't stand in bad stuff.
Other games expect basic competence, FFXIV is pleasantly surprised by it. Other games have toxic elitism. FFXIV has toxic casualism.[/LIST]
This is a problem because we have had the same formula for 10 years but now they're starting to take away without
giving something good in return in months at a time now. So many things are a bust like Criterion whatever or the Island thing.
Why don't we have POTD yet? That is one system that people actually really liked and we haven't see another since SB.
Also, how many times are we gonna use the Covid Excuse? That was 3 years ago.
What you can give me is "Yoshi is working on FF16 so a lot of his people are over there"
and I'd believe it, because I honestly think that's why the quality of this game is going to hell.
He is working other projects and it's hard to do, I get it but one of your games are suffering because of it.
I'ma see what happens in 7.0 really. FF16 is releasing this year, this will give time for Yoshi to turn back on this game
as a main focus. If 7.0 (I'll give him half the expansion) isn't anything new or better then I'm out.
4K HD super grass isn't enough for me to stay like I'm sorry lol.
Take a break is just an excuse for poor development cycle. Why this is sub based mmo then?
