    There's no logic to it other than that they follow a very rigid production plan for each expansion pack. 6 areas, 2 new jobs, one main city with an inn room, one endgame hub without one, etc.

    It probably allows them to estimate development costs precisely and to minimize risk, but it does make things feel very "paint by numbers".

    Funny thing is that S9 showed us an apartment-like instance but wouldn't give it to us.
    I'd love to have an apartment/room in Ala Mhigo or so
    I'd love to have an apartment/room in Eulmore...
    I don't care about Radz at Han but technically there's an instance with a room in it already, even the lore claims we're welcome but apparently no
    I'd love a Garlean apartment/room

    Is it really so difficult? Give us FC chests and MBs while at it, I'm sick of limsa being the most optimal/efficient of the city states sorry random derail

    It's because the developers do everything according to an arbitrary formula which they are seemingly terrified of deviating from in any way. They always do one inn room located in the main hub for the expansion.

    They have a model for a Radz at Han inn room which they used in the 6.X MSQ, but they won't implement it because that would deviate from The Formula.

    The endgame vendors also have to be in the hub that the inn and MB aren't, to make sure we can't just use the hub we prefer.

    Formula package. Love it or hate it, that's what Yoshi P has designed for us.
    Thats why this game has no rng, no happy surprises, no joy when loot drops, nothing drops loot in the open world, all the gathering nodes are pre-set, no extra drops, gems, shiny plants or parts % on hit.
    Thats why instead of all buildings in the open world per zone have like 2.1 buildings that are open and the rest are just SHUT from any access
    Thats why we have a marketboard in just one location instead of two
    That's why we have no build options, no talentpoints, nothing. (To be fair, its to save time for them not to balance things constantly.... but save time for what exactly, lol? this?)
    MMO's core is to make you feel more powerful when you get more gear and more unique as well when you get rare gear.
    This game's systems are the most unique for roleplay, but at the same time the most bland for pve I've ever seen, I have no interest in participating in endgame because the gameplay looks like a bland dodge simulator memory game

    Hell fishing is more exciting than pve in this game, if it wasnt for the spectacle of seeing the surroundings and moves for the first time in pve. But that's what it is, all flash and no substance or excitement after the first fight.
