The reason FFXIV is lacking content is because of casualization.

I completely understand OP, tye content now is basically Slice of life MMO with a little fighting here and there lol (An exaggeration, I jest. But still)

Said financially abusive mobile game is still making 100s of millions (as of Jan 2023) and is considered a success by Blizzard so I guess people aren't super upset about it.

As was also said earlier, it's not easy to get a PS5 currently. There are still estimations of shortages lasting until 2024. It's not just PC people getting upset here, it's people who literally can't purchase a PS5 because of that or refuse to pay scalper prices for one (cause screw paying $700 for a console that retails for $400-500 depending on digital edition or not).

Just looking it now at amazon, PS5 is currently in stock and even have some bundles so saying that its still not easy to get one is false.

Theyre not in shortage anymore

casuals are based, 1500 tomes is based

Peak fanboy. Other company bad, company i like good.

Its the same thing.

Nope not even close, nor is it even being a fanboy. Its literally seeing the patterns and setting up the standard expectations.

Nobody in the Blizzard community expected them to make the next big Diablo game a mobile one. A community that has expected all of their main products to be on PC.

Same with the set standards with SE and the mainline FF games, it has always been a console game first with PC ports later down the road. But people are crying about it now when this has always been a thing with the series. We've expected this, if you havent then it just shows how ignorant you are.

And your expactation was that the game you pay monthly for works on a skeleton crew to develop a different game?

You know FF16 has been in full development since 2016 right? If you're 100% correct that they pulled people from 14 to work on 16, then this "skeleton crew" has been with us since late Heavensward.

fun fact, most casual players complain that they don't have time to grind relic weapons but somehow they do have time for every level 90 job.

Kind of an interesting use case actually, cause the tome grind and level grind are pretty comparable when you think about it.

I take it you've taken the time to check every person making this approval for current status, and/or complaints of a grind also has all jobs at level 90?

Or is this one of those... I checked the profile of 3 people and I am therefore going to use that to make a sweeping and woefully inaccurate comment.

Skiros must have finished the new ultimate, so now he's back shit posting on another new character.
