Absolutely.
This is why this genre will never be worth playing again.
BTW, go read old forums from 2000-2004 MMOs, no one cares or talks about the story at all.

FF is more old-school MMORPG, also has better end game (if one likes gear treadmill).
It doesn't have end game, it's 4 square room musical chairs simon says bosses per year(remind you of another game?)

I consider this patch an Ele nerf since everyone else is being buffed and we aren't.

Basically nerfing it, too. Since every one else is buffed.
This is why power creep is bad for games.
20 hours ago, AliamRationem.5172 said:There are other weapons besides scepter that they did jack kitten for and for a PvE patch this looks decidedly PvP focused. I think some disappointment is warranted here.
Focusing balance on a unsupported dead game mode is an extremely questionable decision.

How is Living World Season One as a 'one and done' any different from the Personal Story,, Living World Season Two, Season Three, Season Four, Season Five (aka The Icebrood Saga) or any other story-type content? Are you claiming that all those years of story are a 'colossal waste of time and bad for an MMO'? Why is Guild Wars 2 still populated and receiving updates, then?
Check it's quarterly earnings, the game isn't doing so hot.

Yet people are overwhelmingly happy to have such one and done content.
Just because you don't like it it doesn't mean it's not good content or not content at all.
Are you seriously going to defend one and done content in a MMO?
Content with zero replay value and zero rewards for repeats is a colossal waste of time and bad for a MMO - the quarterly earnings report shows this, btw.

In NCsofts recent Q3 earnings conference call NCsoft gaves short statements about positive changes and events of every game for the last quarter and such. The Steam-release of GW2 was not even mentioned. This tells a lot about how NCsoft sees the Steam release of GW2 - it is not seen as a success.
This was expected. The people who want to play FF14 are already playing FF14. EoD is GW2's worst expansion to date and they're still desperately trying to copy FF14 instead of being GW2. It's (obviously) failing.
FF14 isn't popular due to it's gameplay, it's due to it having a cult defending it and catgirls + lewd outfits. GW2 doesn't have catgirls and intentionally makes conservative outfits that cover up your entire body even though human females are attractive.
If you want to copy FF14, you need to realize WHY it's successful, they clearly do not.

I'd be down with 2/3 years worth of no real content updates if I knew Anet was working on turning the game into an open world MMO.
What? It already is that.
Open world games are a massive resource/cost/time hog that provide very little gameplay. GW2 is the only game to use their open world properly and full of repeatable stuff...just no rewards anymore.

LWS1 is content though.
While technically true, one and done is not good MMO content.

People here already complaining about the absence of new contents are probably the same people who rush the completition of every expansion or LW the first 2 weeks after release. Just take your time and enjoy content, game designers don't need to be rushed, maybe they just covered this year with LW1 to rearrange thoughts for newer contents. Patience fellas!
If Blizzard or SE did not release a content update for nearly a year after an expansion release the games would die.

Anet loves their WvW players...the ones who boonball in a guild and never fight the other 3 boonball guilds. Yes, they love all 50 of these people! In fact, they love them so much they balance and design the entire mode around them!
If you're the other 99.99% of the player base, oh well, sucks.

How are instabs making fractals more fun?
They aren't, this is part of the "they've gone donehill" I'm talking about.

A drought? Really? When Releases were every two weeks?? Weird notion of content drought. 🤦♂️
I wish we would have an every-two-week-release content drought for the next 2 years.
Let me know what highly rewarding and highly replayable content has been released since EoD.
I'll be waiting.

- Too easy
- Bad gold/hour
- Bad unique rewards. I have legendaries, I don't need weapon skins.
- Too repetitive
I'm the target audience for this content too.

Are there any rewards for this content?
Not really, which is the issue with everything released since Drizzlewood.

The game spends a few months fixing a hole in its story that's been there for YEARS after having completed a DECADE long narrative and you say the game has no "Forward progress"?
Dear GOD I need to stop coming to this forum.
Story doesn't matter in a MMO.
LS1 is essentially a 1 year content drought, just like the original LS1 was

You are probably the only one that thinks that the strike fights are worse than the raid fights.
Trash makes stuff more interesting. Strikes are extremely bland, I might as well go play epic boss battles starcraft 2 mod if i just want to fight bosses in a square room.
1 hour ago, Nephalem.8921 said:Some of them improved now. But most release versions were just lacking extremely hard. Vindicator gs is still a 4/5 copy of the ranger gs. Alliance legend is another hybrid support questionable legend.
Mechanist says hi. They have an extreme fixation on 0(zero) APM specs that do 29k+ DPS. Action game, btw.
Class design is better, balance is, and always has been, absolute trash. It somehow gets worse every patch.
1 hour ago, Nephalem.8921 said:Fractals are also just worse than wow mythic+ btw. The last fractal came out more than 2 years ago. Sirens reef 1.5 years before that. 2 fractals in 4 years.
No they aren't, have you even played M+? in WoW? They're really boring and the affixes do nothing to make them more fun. Fractals were "micro sized" dungeons with unique gameplay mechanics that weren't just "aoe down everything then kill a boss that has too much HP to be fun". CM 99 final boss is one of the best 5 man bosses ever made. The newest fractals are really, really bad, though. They went downhill once they started to make fractals take as long as a dungeon.
1 hour ago, Nephalem.8921 said:FF14 ships an expansion with 6-7? dungeons and adds more during a cycle?
6-7 hallways with forced 2-4 mob pulls - > boss - > forced 2-4 mob pulls - > boss - > forced 2-4 mob pulls - > boss.
I wonder why they can make so many..
1 hour ago, Nephalem.8921 said:There are still way too many single use story instances. They could be turned into fractals but no, better waste the entire map design for a single use story instance.
This has been a problem plagueing this game for a long, long time now. They've gotten better about it but strikes are scraping the toilet bowl level of content in a MMO.

Heck I'd take that. Fractals, raids, and dungeons are dead content and we're averaging 4 strikes per year. That's a pretty weak showing for content that consists of a single boss encounter.
Yeah, this is the sad state of MMO's. When FF14 2.0 released it's content schedule was terrible and considered a barren wasteland of content. Now? It looks like an ocean of things to do in comparison to every other MMO on the market. Disgusting.

what diversity are you talking about.
DD singlehandedly made almost every single build you would like to play unusable dog kitten.
There is a reason why people only roamed on DD and maybe rev, every other roamer was not only weaker but also hard countered by thief.
You wanna play side-node? you need to have tools to survive 0 counterplay DD gank, if you cant, your build is unusable.It's funny how Thief has dictated the meta since alpha and thief players complained the class sucked the entire time.

Sad coz this mode has one of the best if not the best PvP and combat mechanics. Thanks to the former employees. I really do hope the mode makes a comeback.
Not going to happen with the current leadership.
GW3 will be a mobile + PC cross platform Genshin clone.

FFXIV has a lot more resources and this type of content is a primary focus for them.
They actually don't. Ultimate raids aren't a consistent and scheduled thing, savage raids are 4 bosses a YEAR and the bulk of the games development time is put into trash fluff content and terrible story. Remind you of another game? Here's a hint: starts with a G.

Okay....
FF14 has a far better instanced pve content than gw2. Its not even in the same league. The only reason why gw2 content improved is because they started to copy it.
Both are terrible, but fractals are better than anything FF14 will ever create, period. GW2 content has actually gotten worse since they copied Simon Says Musical Chairs gameplay. The classes have gotten worse, too, a lot worse in fact.
FF14 is a trash heap of a game that every company copies because it makes lots of money and in turn makes their game just as much of a trash heap. It makes money due to cat girls, having a cult(literally) following spamming every game site about how great the game is and because it's an FF game, on top of extremely low funding, not because it's actually a good game.

Love the years worth of "Bring back LWS1" and when they finally do you see people whining about "no new content".
Anet doesn't do what people ask them to do - Whine
Anet does what people ask them to do - WhineTwo different groups. The group who wanted LS1 are an extremely small minority.

New content, but will we get enough new rewards to make the content worth replaying for years? Or will we keep playing Drizzlewood for another 4 years?

The power gap between the best and weakest solo specs are completely insane.
This has always been an issue, and will continue to be as long as these developers try their hardest to make this game into FF14.

Which major, unrealistic feature would you gladly skip an expansion for?

They can't even add rewards to current content, how could you expect them to do this?
