    Their refusal to implement instanced housing is absolutely infuriating.

    Second this; probably one of the most glaring issues with the game. Subjective issues with gameplay aside, there's people who simply aren't able to participate, even if they have the gil necessary to do so. It's like a lack of content that you hit even though it literally exists, and they have the ability to solve the problem. Even if you're willing to leave your datacenter to go to what people constantly claim as a dead one, they've locked a chunk of the wards so you cant buy them until those are inevitably unbearably full as well. They've just made the entire experience insufferable for no reason

    In general though there's just a ton of obviously repurposed stuff to save money; in really obvious ways and it just leaves a horrible taste in your mouth when you see it. Like I've been told they make more money off of this game than any other project, and I have absolutely no trouble believing that because it's as clear as gravity literally just based off of visible things in-game.

    Like the reason there isn't cross-class glam isn't any kind of actual engine limitation (because it isn't) but simply because if you give a lvl 80 maiming class access to lvl 60 fending gear a couple patches after, you've increased the pool of things the maiming class can wear rather than actually modeling something new for it. There's an analogy to be made here but I can't think of one that's down to earth so no one accuses me of comparing it to real world suffering. Same goes for dyeable stuff (with the exclusion of savage gear, where dying is actually an appropriate reward). And the fact that they've just given up on making headgear for Viera and Hrothgar. I don't even play one and I feel bad for them, man. Like how high could the budget be outside of operating costs if you barely makes 10 new actually uniquely modeled sets of gear every 3 years?

    It's just a sad state for SE's most profitable game. I feel more negative about it than I feel positive and I only log in anymore because other people want me to.
