I think even though I am disappointed about only 1 new dungeon and one HM we did get a lot of content again for 3.1.
1. New looks to be badass dungeon in the Arboretum (cannot wait to try that out).
2. Pharos rework could be good if they do it right and make the bosses interesting.
3. The Airship exploration could be very good or very bad...some are saying it seems to by like Dynamis...but I have never experienced that so I hope this version is really good.
4. The minion battles looks lame to me and a waste of development time...more crap that no one will ever do and we could have had something better.
5. The new 24 main RAID everyone like to crap on those but I still find the casual raid at least fun and interesting and another way to level our other jobs without having to wait for Esos and such.
6. The other new Gold Saucer stuff is just Meh...probably try some and do the challenge log to get max GSP and that is it.
All in all good patch.

I'm all for less dungeons if it means we get more variety of content and other ways to obtain tomes. SO sick of roulette as the ONLY OPTION for them D:

I personally do only adding 2 new dungeons, what I'm really concerned about is EX roulette. They better just add these 2 new ones to expert, and not make fractal and neverreap high level. It really sucks only having 2 options.

Damn, that Arboretum is making me feels a Dino Crisis horror vibe.

Honestly, I'm not all impressed at the dungeon, though my GF will geek out at any and all of the lore that will show up there.

I'm actually more interested in the Pharos rework than the new dungeon. The modifications look interesting. But dungeons are dungeons, both will boil down to what fight mechanics are there and if it flows well.

I'm thinking this is closer to Sky than it is Dynamis, but if it is related to endgame, this will be the expanded endgame people will be wanting. If not, it will be a fun diversion. Saying it calls back to Older MMOs will be a plus in many people's eyes.

I'm more than happy about this than I am about most other content, to be honest. Fun diversions that have their own little world attached to them. This was created at the massively positive reaction from the community, so let's see how it goes.

And, as much as people belittle it, there's always glamours to consider. Gear that appeals to people better than the Eso or Gordian gear in terms of looks will always be worth the dive in.

It looks like there are some good adjustments and quality of life additions for the game as well. All and, my sensibilities may differ from yours, but I agree we had a pretty darn good patch. Again, SE releases more content quicker than most other competitors.

Yeah #4 started as a joke right Hyrist?

What about this joke? Think it will happen?

End of Video Reads: "The implementation of 2D fighting is not Planned."

It's... probably not going to happen. But one could be hopeful?

there was some mention of arboretum, in some leve quest, i think. nice-looking place.
it will probably have arboretum vultures, arboretum bees, arboretum cactuars, arboretum morbols, arboretum peistes, arboretum all the things \o/
the only things that wont have an arboretum-prefix, will be the bosses, and they will be very arboretum anyway...or just copy-paisted caduceus.
arboretum coeurls.

It'll probably be like FFXIV 1.23's Skirmish. To describe Dynamis... excluding the ??? NM's, you can just compare it to Valkerm Dunes exp farming (but with procs. Only mob that needed to be worried about was the SMN. Astral Flows hurt).
