Some positive 5.25 Feedback :)

I've really enjoyed it as well. Since I'm working from home, I've been gathering all the mats I need for relic gathering weapons. Its perfect for me waiting for something to come in.

Also the story was fantastic. Currently have 4 of the relic weapons and will be slowly getting the rest. 2 crafting relics and 1 gathering relic received as well.

Just in case you weren't aware, patch 5.35 will be the next chapter of the StQ story, and will include a new instanced field zone similar to Eureka, including a public dungeon like BA. You also will be able to upgrade your weapon through this instance, OR through other methods outside of the instance itself.

At least that is what they have planned. Most likely, the new instance will be the most efficient way of upgrading relics, but for those who do not want to put so much time into it, other options similar to the ARR/HW relic steps will be made available.

Comes up sometimes in interviews. I don't think it's confirmed that the new public dungeon codenamed BA2 will be related to the resistance weapons field zone, just assumed, but yeah all of that stuff is true.

And plus one for the gangos music. I like the graphics for this zone too, it's a nice little settlement visually.

I.. still have doubts. The community has a tendency to take small tidbits and create whole "announcements". Where was this said specifically? I'm asking because the poster I quoted seems VERY sure that that's exactly what's happening.

"In Eureka, upgrade materials could only be gathered inside Eureka itself, but for Save the Queen we’re planning to have other methods to obtain the required items outside of the specific content.

The new field will have a unique leveling system and a tense atmosphere, and we have plans for a high-difficulty challenge similar to Baldesion Arsenal. Having said that, we removed aspects like fighting over portals, and used the feedback we received from Eureka to develop something new. Please look forward to it!"

Ahh, thank you!

One issue I have with it so far for the weapon, is the need complete the old raid quests first.. A bunch of boring unlock quests, followed by learning and running Rabanastre and Ridorana (Haven't run the second one yet.)

I thought Eureka was fun... in the first week or two of each instance release anyway, when people were chatting, fighting, etc. After that, with more and more people going afk or moving on, it became extremely tedious.

I have enjoyed pretty much everything with XIV for years. The only thing I am not a big fan of has been PVP, and the Baldesion Arsenal. Though the BA was more playerdriven and their behaviour that made me avoid doing it.
Another thing that annoys me, is just how many demands some players put out, and if their demands are not met to 100% it is nothing but complaints

I love the enthusiasm of Yoshida and his whole team, as I have not seen many if any other devteam acting like they are and I do not wanna loose that
XIV means a lot to me just like many other FF games ^^

XIV just has such great devteam, Jobs, music, story, characters, worlddesign, raids, dungeons, crafting and so much more :) (except pvp) hehe

I started playing XIV in 1.15 and I was actually not aware of its poor launch and wondered why didnt my VISA not get charged when my 30 days incl playtime was up hehe
When they announced 1.0 was shutting down to remake the game, and they have delivered on their words, they made me a life long supporter of XIV and SE itself if they continue as they have :)
