This isn't really delayed. They're getting back to their normal expansion schedule. Endwalker was the outlier. It's usually late spring/early summer.

Patch 2.0 | Release Date: August 27, 2013
Patch 3.0 | Release Date: June 23, 2015 (Less than 2 years)
Patch 4.0 | Release Date: June 20, 2017 (2 years)
Patch 5.0 | Release Date: July 2, 2019 (2 years)
Patch 6.0 | Release Date: December 7, 2021 (2 years and 5 months)
Patch 7.0 | Release Date: Summer 2024 (2 years and X months)

So, while the summer months was their prior release dates, between Endwalker and 7.0 there is an entire extra year of waiting compared to 3.0, 4.0, and 5.0.

Necessary evil really. Covid and Endwalker threw things out of whack. If they had tried to release this past summer, I don't think it would have gone well. And a winter release would keep us in the bad timeline and not get things back to the normal summer release schedule.

How about "Get a job, go to a gym, stop eating cheese puffs and if you're not happy with a game, go find another"?

Just saw your nearly 2000 post count in 2 years. Well, will I consider that ship sailed?

Well, you can do all of those things and still think the wait is going to drag on for new content. And I'm someone who has a job, goes to the gym, doesn't eat cheese puffs, and plays other games when I'm bored.

- Am fortunate enough to not need to work at the moment although I do take website design commissions when I want to
- My gym is in my basement (treadmill, elliptical, resistance bands, etc.) because I'd prefer not to get creeped on when I want to work out
- Who eats cheese puffs these days?
- I have multiple games I enjoy these days including Genshin, Star Rail, GW2 and some random WoW dabbling

Am I allowed to want the content from the game I love the most to be more engaging and long lasting now?

Let's now watch the simps have a collective meltdown once again and mass report threads they don't like.

I mean

You could do the same to simps and white knight alike.

Not only do you get to prove your side represents the voice of many, you build a better platform for like-minded civilized individuals to gather and enjoy the fruitful discussion you will be having.

Unlike Twitter( X ) and Reddit, FFXIV Official Forumis known to be a haven for people who are critical about the game (or games made by CBUIII). Your power here is overwhelming, unmatched and invincible.

If the mere number of YDF, Yoshi-p Defense Force, on the forum can succeed in “mass” reporting. I have great confidence that you can do it, too, and with grace and ease.

I also would love to observe the upcoming power struggle it might ensue.

I mean they could mass report with the amount of alts this user has...I mean the OP and second post are the same user XD But to the subject matter ahh yes a duplicate post by the same poster....with sarcastic hyperbole whatever shall we do.

I mean there are many other video games to play in the mean time.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

You see me take the W place. Meanwhile the other players will get L ratio on ff14 fall guys.

Unfortunately it's pretty normal for there to be an extended patch lull after the final patch before an expansion, but it gives you chance to finish off things that you didn't previously without feeling another patch will steal your attention from it.

So much downtime may even be able to crack the Riemann Hypothesis
