Final Fantasy 14 director Yoshi-P knows the MMO isn't in "perfect" shape after Dawntrail, but Patch 7.3 marks a new beginning for Square Enix

Final Fantasy 14 expansion Dawntrail recently saw its Steam reviews drop back to "Mostly Negative" after previously rising to "Mixed" briefly, but future updates might just patch the poor reception up.

Patch 7.25, which added Occult Crescent and other new features to Final Fantasy 14, wasn't received well by many players, despite Square Enix saying it took past feedback into account while designing it. Fans have expressed dissatisfaction with there being "too much repetitive grind with not much to do" since its release – but director Naoki "Yoshi-P" Yoshida's recent words on Patch 7.3, which launches August 5, spark some hope for the future.
