    My Concern for 7.3 - Endwalkerization

    So, remember that little stint where the MSQ stretched all the way through 6.5? Reading the new site I’ve a major issue with how they’re telling us how they’re setting up. We probably aren’t getting back to normal scheduling - we’re going back to postpatch Endwalker(which was bad by the way) if they don’t wrap this up in this patch. It might even be a rush job.

    If anything, I’m mostly pointing this out so we don’t wonder why we didn’t wrap up Dawntrail’s Story in 7.3 like we’re supposed to. This gives the next expac breathing room to set-up instead of the one-stop pit stop we got in 6.55 to rush explaining it.

    If they do wrap it up in 7.3, then I won’t speak of this again - if they don’t, then better to hit them over the head for it.

    Endwalker deserves to be shat on a lot more for doing this to us

    They've already confirmed that they're doing that.

    Endwalker was the start of a lot of problems, not just the schedule.
    It ruined worldbuilding, like Sharlayan farting out a spaceship that only Allagan could conjure up, forget "lets explore Hydaelyn, we JUMPED THE SHARK right into the END OF THE UNIVERSE and having a bunch of exposition scientists that know EVERYTHING about the world, why even bother adventuring? DYNAMIS, that is a dev-splain for anything even remotely "skip this fight even if the fighter is weak" like Wuk Lamat getting the shit kicked out of her, only to beat like 50 minions and the guy that kicked the shit out of her in the next fight. Was a start for the whole "MSQ memery" and wonky sound effects. Tanked a lot of lore with its rushing and mashing two expansions into one. While unbelievably having meaningless filler like a lot of the Labyrinthos.

    The devstaff should just admit they aren't interested in making an MMO seriously anymore, because this is not what a serious company does. I sense 0 passion from them

    Urgh. They have said over and over again 7.3 is the end of DT's story. How they are speaking is building up the next expac and hopefully for the next major arc.

    Omg, that gives me hope that something new and fresh is around the corner. A clean slate is what we all need, and hopefully, not just for story but gameplay too.

    They have mentioned that a big threat will happen soon and that we will "return as the hero of this world", so I doubt they are going to do it quite like Endwalker.

    I really hope they don't go the way of WoW - with countless cosmic evils each queuing up for their 15 minutes of fame when they finally get to threaten the universe, only to be disposed off immediately afterwards.

    Yeah, I hope it's the great world building we had before and have villains as deep as Emet Selch and such, here's hoping we do in 8.0.

    I mean, the best part about Emet Selch was that he wasn't even a villain. He fought tooth and nail for all he held dear, exactly like the WoL does.

    The best opponents are those whose motives you can understand, when you see the world through their eyes. This were the strongest moments in SB when they made you feel all the loss this man had to suffer, to the point where you pity him for the incredible weight he has to shoulder. And still you have to fight him, for all that you hold dear. "There are things we cannot afford to lose." Well said, mister creepy cat-fanboy

    I honestly don't know how it only took two xpacs to come from Emet Selch to SPHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEENE LISTEN TO ME!
