Guess you missed all the threads where people were asking that old areas by made relevant again because the majority were sitting empty during/after abyssea. "I really miss how pretty such and such a zone was, it's sad that there's no reason to go there anymore...make people want to go there again!"
I don't envy Camate and the other reps one bit. No matter what SE does, there's always going to be some jackhole complaining..even when they're just doing what people ask them to do.
I know it must suck for them. They create such a masterpiece to have these armchair developer obese meatheads come in and complaining 24/7.
That's actually bad game design.
It's called integration. Good games do it, using older content to support new etc.
And integrating new ideas into old content is always good.
Without doing this, games actually DO die.
And further, we wouldn't have half the stuff people prize without it. (Dynamis procs, Thaumas coat, +1 anything... Etc)
No the playerbase are a bunch of mugs who will do the same old crap over and over again, we have already farmed af, dynams gear and now people go crazy just to upgrade the same old crap.
Lets have more new gear with new designs, sure use the old zones sky etc but give us new stuff not the same old crap with new stats that the playerbase fawn over.
I dont mind for AF Relic and empy upgrades. Those are iconical Job specific equipments, i like their design. HOwever i really DO NOT want to see sky abjuration/gear etc be upgraded... rather see a new event with new drops. Some things should be left to die, because they are too olde. If they really want to upgrade those items too, i rather have them revamp sky/sea etc. with new monsters for ilvl 119 players and have them wipe out the olde drops with new drops that have the same armor model. I am really tired atm haveing to carry around 392302939023 of old gear just because it "might" get upgraded.
See, your post is stupid. The reforged gear is new gear. It has a new name, new stats, and is acquired through new content. The only way it is "the same old crap" is because it looks the same. It's purely cosmetic.
At the same time, they are releasing new Delve and Skirmish zones with other equipment paths that look different.
