Fact is, SE need to invest money in this game instead of stripping it to pay their endlessly greedy Shareholders or to pay for other projects.

The team have run on a template for as long as i can remember.
Patch releases, it has 1 dungeon, 1 Trial, 1 AR or Norm.
SE feel too 'safe' with this min effort patch cycle and dont really innovate as a result.

As more money is stripped from the game, we will see longer times between patches and more bland content unfortunately.
I hope SE can tell the leeches no for once and start investing money where its needed rather than draining the golden goose dry.
