The iron bell is tolling as the cash shop is inundated with mid-tier or old outfits for $40 to make up for cratered subscriber population, loot drops for new content is just old loot from past expansion content, and mogpendium content isn't popping at all despite the "incentive" of getting yet another earring you're never going to wear.
Hardcore raiders have been shafted w/ cancellation of Ultimate and no new raid content until Jan. Mid-core players have been shafted w/ "Chaotic" raid that body-checks (SE doesn't know how to make content "hard" aside from punishing a lack of perfection), and now with the Field Operation raid that body checks with 48 players (they forgot what made Baldesion Arsenal and Bozja good). They're re-releasing Potd for the 4th time, and Variant/Criterion dungeons - which they promised more of, are nowhere to be found. The new Blu content is going to be "beat Pandemonium raids" and only 500 people will do it. The Beast Master content is going to be a copy-paste of Blu.
The devs got mad at us during the last live letter for not playing the content they made and said "sorry you didn't like it" instead of apologizing for letting 60 year old developers continue to make content that would have been popular in 1999; ignoring a quarter century of QoL improvements and changes that have occurred in the gaming industry since they made DQ3.
SE has extended the dev cycle by a month each patch to deliver us the least content we've gotten in over half a decade for the same price. Even the story - the main selling point of the game for years, is bad now.
The next dungeon will go like this: Pull 2 packs, kill, pull 2 more packs, kill, go to boss, repeat x3. The new trial will be in/out, left/right but with different graphics and some boss saying voice lines over it. The Alliance raid will nostalgia bait the 22 people who played FF11 and still play FF14. There will be a cutscene partway through the last boss fight - that's what makes it special.
