The difference between v9 and v21 is that v9 added actual gameplay features (events and new add-on system) while v21 substitutes gameplay features with cosmetical features. And if it's "to pave the way for better content later", how about he waits with forcing it down everyone's throats until said content appears? If it will ever appear, that is. Which it probably won't. Because he'll be too busy making crap like a day-night cycle, which the BS-fanboys will all call the second coming.
