Eureka, Square-Enix still don't get it

*sorry my English is not good

I like XI & XIV 1.2x, but hate Eureka, because:

1.The greatest rewards in a MMO are meeting new friends, working & creating bonds with others,
but you get none of these in Eureka, because it's instanced & cross server.

2.The gameplay in Eureka is so..sorry my English, It's so poor that I even don't know how to describe it,
idle in the town, when the Fate pops, then run to it like a headless chicken, mind is dead.

3.The gear progression system is broken, I've already got my ilv390 weapon, by spending 10mins x 7 weeks in Alphascape,
But I am still working on the ilv385? in Eureka, and it's so lonely & boring.

4.Working on gears is meaningless in this game, many people have said that.

5.The only thing that matters in this game is glamour.... But the new gears are ugly.
playing a game for glamour,a smartphone game can also do that, that's why so many (95%) players have quit.

6.Development budget is not the issue,
XI & XIV1.2x had much less budget, and XIII & XV are so expensive to make,
the issues are the game design & direction.

Well said my non-native english speaking friend.

I did enjoy Pagos while most noone else did, actually got to meet some people in there.

Same. Oddly enough. The awfulness of the place stimulated a fair bit of comradery.

Not to say it couldn't be better and still have that much and more social-ness; it was merely the silver lining in an otherwise heavy-metals-polluted lake.

Bit hard to honestly take this seriously
not because of the poor english just the inconsistencies of your statements.

Wouldn't be the forums without another Eureka hate thread

I mean can you blame people? Everyone's eyes are on the Fanfest in order to get the final validation if they wanna continue playing this game and Eureka is easy to point fingers at since it's flawed content that was poorly designed, everyone wants that carrot on a stick. Nor does anyone want repeats of Eureka and wanna be heard as well which hopefully the FFXIV devs and reps read and get feedback.

Eureka was really, really bad. Not only did SE create another instanced giant space fail. They shut out the casual playerbase with the relic weapon.

This Fanfest has perhaps the most pressure on it out of the 3.

What gets is that in the end, everything they do boils down to FATE farming. Yokai, Diadem, Eureka, all of it is glorified FATE farming. Don't you think we got enough of that in North Thanalan? Worst of all, they keep putting bigger and shinier carrots on it. They already got the relic! They're probably cooking up a way to drag pure raiders into this mess too. Upgrade your raid weapon to its final state by fate farming for a low drop rate material. Please look forward to it

I still can't believe people are making hate threads for Euereka. It's simple you don't like it don't play it. But also don't come to the forums and say how much you hate it. For everyone who hates it there is a person that likes it. So OP I don't know where you are getting the 95% of the player base have quit because of it . Because that is total bs.

I still can't believe that there are people complaining, about people complaining about things which they don't like in a game, for which they pay a subscription for, on top of purchasing the base game and expansions.

I currently refuse to do the garbage content that is Eureka. I would not mind it so much if Eureka was meant to cater to some niche audience within the game. However,that doesn't appear to be the case. A lot of dev time and resources was put into Eureka when they could have been used elsewhere to create content which is more enjoyable and doesn't draw so much hate.

Also, while OP may or may not have statistics to back up their claim, where are your statistics for this:

"For everyone who hates it there is a person that likes it" ?

Because Eureka is already the Top 3 content in this game, the other two are music & story.
the other good things in this game are the graphics & UI, that's it.

The other contents in this game are so irrelevant & boring, I don't even bother to mention.
& I've done the Roulettes 3000+ times, alone. It's a pure pain,
Yes there are so many pains in XIV1.2x & XI too, but the rewards are totally worth it, the bonds between players are eternal, are priceless.

I've joined 3 FC, all of them are dead now, because this game encourages people solo everything.
If you want to play with others, you're always going to be punished(still no level sync in Eureka),
or you just can't do that, it forces you to SOLO all story & job quests fights,
I met so many friends just by doing job quest in XIV1.2x, happy old days! but now, it's sad
