What nonsense. He says this but puts in systems that encourage you to stay subbed, like weekly lockouts and housing demo timers (alongside a perpetual housing crisis)

I agree. Remember folks: Yoshi P is a gamer AND a business man. You can see him like a partner in a hobby but never as your dad. If you don't play or watch how this game changes as the time goes on, you will lose a lot. It's part of a MMO nature and it's exactly what makes it fun.
Almost 4 years later after beating Heavensward i discovered a sub quest where you unlock a special emote. Great quest, amazing writing and dialogues, and i didn't noticed because it was a yellow quest and i could not wait to try Samurai.

Why they don't make such content more clear or obvious? Because they want you to look for it.

We have in-game clock with time gate to spawn nodes, weather forecast that can influence sightseeing log, grand company, hunts with weird rules, tribes and now Island. When you stop and try to synchronize all these contents, you will literaly live in Eorzea for a day and still have stuff to do
