>Just what do they even do now?
Wrap this arc up by 7.5 and leave everything on a giant cliffhanger with no actual direct. 8.0-8.X is a purely horizontal expansion with focus entirely on gameplay breadth, class diversification, upgrading present content to be far more engaging, and the entire MSQ is purely about revisiting areas we've already been to to revisit all of the old content renewed. Level cap is still 100, jobs instead get Subjobs with huge overhauls to their kit, Blue Mage is made into a non-limited Job, Beastmaster is turned into a non-limited Job, balance is all over the fucking place as they make it so every job is now extremely unique in their approach rather than being streamlined for raidlogging, and items are shifted heavily so they actually have use in combat. Hell I'd go so far as to make it so that a huge part of this content upheaval also brings in things like Gold Saucer, that silly Ishgard rhythm minigame, and even Squadron Missions all get sizable updates and revisits. If the next expansion is another vertical increase to level 110, with the exact same linear story, the exact same boss cycle, the exact same writing team, and nothing else substantial other than turning the wheel one more time, people will start leaving this game in droves and it'll be near-impossible to reclaim it. DT was basically the community's stress test, and this is verifiably the limit of Nothing the XIV community can take.

Wow.
Hey I've got to give it to you anon, but for such a terrific fucking thread, you somehow managed to make the worst post I've seen all day.

I wish tgtf didn't attract so many trannies.
