This is what we get with the next Patch
Main Scenario Quests - Crossroads = a Handful Quests, more Wuk Lamat = more Skipping
New Alliance Raid - Echoes of Vana'diel - Jeuno: The First Walk = a small piece of the Raid like 3-4 Bosses
New Dungeon - Yuweyawata Field Station = just 1 Dungeon
New Trial - The Minstrel's Ballad: Sphene's Burden = just a Trial
New Ultimate Raid - Futures Rewritten (Ultimate) = Gaia and Ryne again
Chaotic Alliance Raid - Cloud of Darkness (Chaotic) = Cloud of Darkness for the third time
New Unreal Trial - The Jade Stoa (Unreal) = Byakko for the second time
Allied Society Quests - Pelupelu = sounds boring
Inconceivably Further Hildibrand Adventures = yeah no, 100% not funny, 100% skipping
Custom Deliveries - Nitowikwe = sounds boring too
Role Quests = any interessting in these quests? Don't think so.
Wachumeqimeqi Quests = same like the Role Quests
Hall of the Novice Update = Old Content
Housing Update = No content at all, just a small change
Doman Mahjong Update = guess a handful of Players will be happy about this
New PvP Gear = OH, let me guess, the ugly Craftable Gear we have now as a Level 1 Glamour Gear? Or will it be the 690er Gear?
New Mounts, Minions, and Emotes = yes 1-2 Mounts (my guess is from the Unreal + Ultimate Raid) + 1-2 Minions + 1 Emote
...and more! = Hahaha yeah right more next year or so!
* Some content will be made available via patch updates at a later date. <--- Rofl, like this "Content" has so damn much to offer that you have to split it.
I don't see much Casual Stuff in this Patch. -

Polish for a handful of side content
Great content release schedule, guys.

Yeah...I'm getting tired of the game for all the wrong reasons. The gear grind for me is a big big minus. Yes mmos are all about the grind but in 14 there's no way to speed anything up with 450 weekly cap etc. It's ridiculous in a game that touts you can be all jobs on 1 character. Am I wearing the crafted stuff when I switched back to rpr? Sure but 7 weeks for a weapon, 4 weeks for chest and pants is just stupid. Im in this weird situation where I'm looking forward to 7.1 but am also dreading it....wuk lamat aside it's more about the same old formula and how many weeks it's going to take me because God forbid I decided to switch my main.

I've been looking into wow : war within and tbh I will prolly quit ffxiv to move to wow after 7.1 lul kicks in. Then I will bimonthly subflick until 14 is anything like as good.

10-28-2024, 12:38 AMHeyMcFlyI don't know if you have any experience with WoW but it has alot going on- both good & bad as with most games- there's a timewalking event going on atm to get past released cool stuff and experience old content - mind you, it can all be overwhelming at onceQuote:

WoW has gotten really good about the drop-in-and out when it comes to gearing. The only thing I feel is fomo are the elite pvp set colors but luckily half of the raid stuff looks better
There's much yoshi-p could look at from WoW and adapt into xiv but I think they're too proud & it feels like they believe force feeding us wuk lamat will make us change our minds.
I'm waiting for 7.1 & intend to unsub until things get better in the challenging content area & casual content.
I'm tired of 8-player only hard content being the only real rewarding content in the game as far as real gear progression goes.
We need 4-player hard content that's also just as rewarding as 8-player when it comes to gearing our characters.
I'd like something like WoW's Delves into xiv - which can reward mounts, bis gear, crafting materials and gear upgrade materials. While the loot pool is abit random, you're guaranteed a single piece of high ilvl gear in Delves & the delves become very challenging- something worth repeating. Criterion's in xiv are a faint shadow of wow's delves because while criterions are 4-player hard content with a few scenarios, they're not worth repeating once completed. They do not offer any means to gear your character (unless you want a shiny weapon cosmetic)
Fates in xiv need a change and should reward high ilvl gear, crafting materials, mounts, cosmetics etc as well as bicolor gemstones.
