Has everyone abandoned the Watch Fates until 4.1?

We can have our chocobos out with the minions then, is that where everyone went?

And all I've seen for 4.1 is "Early October". I really want the the glow mount for my alt (Yes, I need a straight jacket) and don't remember it being this dead when I was working on my main last year . If 4.1 is any later than the first week of October I'm worried about burnout if I wait any longer. But soloing all these fates is almost as painful as the last 3 weapons.

I've finished it all and I would guess a fair number of other folks have too. Based on other threads a fair number were quitting after they get the minions and maybe their main weapon.

I did it all when it first came out. I saw quite a few players also completing the weapons at the same time. I’m not really seeing many people doing them now though so perhaps most have already done them :)

Completed the event last year no need to do it this year. Many have already done it so you will not see as many doing it now.

I didn't think it would die this quick. At least post 4.1 i can have stormy to help.

I did all of Yo Kai Watch last year when it was out so I haven't done it all this year since there are no new rewards.

Yo-kai was decidedly unpopular during the first iteration. Many who wanted the second mount will have already suffered through the gauntlet. 4.1 may help you do it solo, but chances are not a lot will pick up Yo-kai now.

Horrible drop rate, meh looking mount, minions, & weapons. Gave up on it early myself.

"Abandoned" implies people even took it up to begin with...

I, for one, did not.

It pretty popular on my world... the return of the event wasn't meant for everyone who did it last year, I don't know why everyone is complaining about it. It's meant for people who weren't around last year, and on new worlds or worlds with a larger population of new people it's quite popular.

I've only got 5 left, and 5 legendays for the first of those. I'll get there. And if I don't it is just for my alt.

I was in Outer La Noscea and there were a mini party grinding the same two fates.

I think it has to do more with people wishing they had a different crossover event *cough*NierAutomata*cough* rather than the same thing we had last year.

I completed it the first time around. Most people suffered severe burnout and quit partway through. I doubt it's much different this time.

I did it last year alongside my relic weapon quests. I liked some of the skins but since so many people had them at the time I didn't use em. Waiting another year till they get unusual again then maybe I'll dust them off. I'm actually regretting getting the mounts since they look so darn silly. It's a major yank out of the world everytime it comes up in random mount roulette.

It's been out a little while now, people who stuck with the content are completing it.

Yeah, plenty would have done it last year and the event has now been running for long enough this time around that plenty more people would have got what they wanted out of it or completed it.

I abandoned them over halfway through the first Yokai Watch event. I have no desire to touch them again, even though I technically never finished the event itself.

It's a repeat event with absolutely nothing new added. Many of the people who cared about it got it done the first time. Do the math.

I'm disappointed that they didn't at least add RDM and SAM weapons to give the people who already finished it some reason to bother again.

i got my minions and the first mount which i look ridiculous in.

that is all I wanted. none of the stuff looks all that good, i got the whm weapon and it looks huge on auri males. :/ like WoW huge.

I haven’t done a single one because I cannot suppose a cross over event with such a stupid cartoon. It’s poor advertising at best at worst it’s poor content with even worse rewards

I abandoned the Yo-Kai watch fates way before Stormblood.

Did last year and not want continue to get a 2nd mount. It isnt so different than 1st and i dont want all weapons anyway... So not did this year

It's a pretty cancerous event, I couldn't push myself to do more than one minion and I was finished, a lot of other people are the same way, so those with the drive mostly got it done the first time around

I finished the 806 FATES I needed to 100% complete this event and get my glowing sperm mount already last week. I imagine those of us who really wanted to finish it have already done so by now.

I just finished it this weekend, and yes I did notice there were a lot less people out farming. I'm guessing either most people are already finished, or they are indeed waiting until 4.1 to finish.

I was seeing a reduction even before the 4.1 stuff was announced. I think everyone is just finished. Then you have insane people like me who are polishing off some things they didn't finish up on alts last year after finishing my main this year.

I got my minions and first mount, that's all I really wanted. I think the list of things most people hate in this game are diadem - vermilion - fates. Especially the vets from ARR launch. The devs tied every event into fate grinds, you can still see it in the ARR hunt bills, relic quests, and beast tribe quests. Most players are just tired of it.

Yeah, I've disliked fates since 2.1, personally.

I also completed the event the first time around, despite coming into it somewhat late. Any drop-off you're seeing now is people deciding they're done.

I like FATEs, but even I understand why hardly anyone wants to grind them for a chance at something dropping. I had enough atma farming between two relics in ARR and eleven of the thirteen relics in HW. Yokai too? ugh...

(Oh, and don't even get me started on the Beast Tribe quest FATEs either)

Did it all last year and though not as bad as atma was it was still rather bad so very glad i had it over with
