It's definitely nice that we get to see them in-game now, though. Hello, Gold Saucer.
Eh, not everybody keeps up to date with those sites. I personally find the official forum to be rather clunky and awkward to navigate. The FFXIV tag on Tumblr seems to be a magnet for drama and ERP baiting at times and Reddit is often just an echo chamber where anyone who voices an opinion different to whatever the majority favour gets downvoted and silenced.
I get most of my information from this site, in-game discussions and the front page over on the official site. I don't make it a point to spoil every last little detail of a patch in advance either. Sometimes it's fun to be surprised.
