Excellent news! Zepla has returned from her long hiatus in the world of Genshin Impact to comment on the state of FFXIV. Hopefully if not us the people SE has hired for its "Influencer Relations" can take in her feedback.

Who gives a damn about that person? It is just another person with a mic.. and often caught data mining like that Meow whatever guy is named, when telling news of FFXIV....

To restore confidence in the game, try and find some other MMO that you might like playing and come back here again.

I don't think Streamers is there for any good, you should rather be playing the game than giving them ANY views at all.

That alone will make you know if you want to actually play the game or not no matter what positive or negative things a clown with a mic tells you to do, and often only influenced by own degraded views rather as of the games as in whole.

Expected more lukewarm take from her. I was pleasantly surprised that she admits that tome dump isn't very exciting and that "just take a break" isn't solution.

What sticked out from me was the comment from chatter: "this expansion been very safe while being experimental"

V&C was great new thing - but it didn't even provide savage equivalent rewards, new reward system or any meaningful rewards for that matter. This single problem caused whole content to die in a week.
Savage loot got some small book nerfs - but it's still locked until .18/.38 without any core changes, even though we have 19 jobs at this point.
No changes in AR, dungeon, or trial formulas
IS is something brand new - but it's nearly completely disconnected from the rest of the game, alongside other problems with it's design
EO is, well, a DD, nothing new or experimental here
But the best experiment was lack of exploratory zone. Hopefully result of this experiment will be that every single expansion from now on will have strong focus on them.
