I think we need to put things into context.
At FF 14, Rouge f*cked us over. We thought the game was dead, and had no idea what to expect from the future. Legion wasn't even "Green Lit," so even the PC gamers couldn't look forward to it.
Then along comes Rattati, making no promises, but arranging the numbers so that the weapons and dropsuits gradually become more and more balanced. We are told not to expect patches, and nothing was ever promised (hence the reason smart people said not to expect anything, contrary to what was said previously in the thread regarding those people).
Then we got 1.9, and 1.10.
Wow.
Suddenly we were getting real updates again! They weren't huge, and nothing massive was really added, but they were certainly larger changes than the hotfixes.
And now we are talking about content like warbarges and PC 2.0 that we thought were pipe dreams just a few months ago.
The content itself might not be huge an significant, but the fact we are here at all is.
I find lots of things that anger me about the game, and have played only once in 3 months or so because of it, but even I can acknowledge and be grateful that positive changes are occurring.

Well, considering you can't invade a warbarge that isn't there, this is a step in the right direction.
Dust can have a lot going for it once it gives vets a place to play other than proto stomping in pubs, and improving upon the NPE.
That doesn't mean its a certainty or even a probability it will be around for some time to come, as long as they make improvements they give themselves room to do something more in the future.
