RNG is Back with ZODIAC Relic

[Hiruke]

SE, what happened?

I thought Atma was pretty telling with the amount of backlash players gave.

Now the RNG revolves around completing outdated dungeons and praying to RNJesus.

Reports of 20+ AV runs with no drop, etc.

Why did you decide to do this again?

I suspect two things:

1) Dev team may have a gambling problem, as they seem to grossly overvalue the "yay" moment of totally random chance finally falling in your favor. This is perhaps, somehow, the worst aspect of the game, and they seem determined to transform this into Pachinko Fantasy XIV. Luck is the only thing that matters, right? And time spent.

Getting lucky and grinding, THAT'S THE FUTURE OF MMOS!

2) Dev team assuredly believes we should go back to old content repeatedly, for everything, to carry everyone on our backs, now that they are finally getting to that content. They may be trying too hard in the wrong way to keep things relevant.
