    Opinions can be harmful just like opinions CAN be wrong. Anyway if the quest was so perfect and well executed they wouldn't have delayed the next step, especially because they already expected not many people would have an Atma let alone an Animus so it's obvious the numbers fell much lower than the low numbers they already had in mind thus the quest execution failed. The majority opinion was that the RNG was bad and unfair and it's a major gate towards starting the real quest and wouldn't allow many people to progress, looks like they were right and they're changing the next step because of this majority and all their feedback, that's all there is to it.

    It does not bug me either way if they mailed you an animus weapon or if it took a year of grinding to get. Yet, I have a sneaking suspicion that people will be here crying that they have nothing to do when the relic weapon upgrade is trivialized.

    The only ones crying might be a couple of people who got lucky really early on and can't feel special anymore. The quest is already trivialized by artificial waiting and grind, there isn't a really challenging part yet though they've mentioned Novus will actually involve party content so that's great. The only reason some people had a couple of issues with the first relic quest and called it easy and trivial was because the 1.0 quest was a bit more involved, first with Hamlet which aside from the RNG which also could be entirely bypassed was it's own thing and involved some sort of strategy, then with faction leves, speedruns, Garuda also being harder for most then finally Ifrit EX, though it also had its own share of artificial grind with beastmen currency and melds and what not and arguably the way the old engine worked just made a couple of things harder. Then you'd say "but look at Titan HM people cried and still cry because it's hard people don't want hard stuff either" then I'll say people had trouble because of the initial gear grind, heart phase was a real DPS check back then and not many people had Myth gear, Darklight or better gear than AK or even AF at least for about the first month or so and there also wasn't an iLV limit, and of course there were bigger latency issues back then that eventually got fixed or at least alleviated but still not enough for some. Then you have the Zenith upgrade which was and still is just myth farming and saving.

    Anyway if people "complain" about having nothing to do then you'd think it'd be better to actually create new content for the game, there's nothing new in the Atma and Animus quest created specifically for it, no new enemies to fight or places to go to, it's all already existing content packaged in the form of a book.
