Feedback Regarding the Relic Upgrade Quest

Where the hell is SE respond on this? They still have their heads up their ass?

Waiting for this to blow over; hoping people will still be at it by the time of the PS4 release so the game won't look so dead pre-50; preparing to make some incredibly minor concession in a month

This pretty much, it's a trick to make the game and most open world areas aside from Revenant's seem livelier than they had regularly been for the beta and earlier release players, or if you want to be positive and look at it nicely, to make it easier for new players to do FATEs I guess. There's also the good old artificial content extension for existing players so they don't "rush" through it all.

Unfortunately I think this is true. It all seems like a brilliant idea on paper - something to keep people occupied in the world, making it populated for the beta, but not requiring much in the way of development, and also meeting the demands for longer-term goals and content without lockouts as requested by some parts of the player base. They'll want to let all that play out for a while before helping anyone with it.

I was lucky yesterday to get one, but still nothing in Southern Thanalan after another couple of hours today (about six so far). Still seven crystals to go. At least my chocobo ranked up...
