Can we please get Mythic+ style dungeons in FF14?

[Greedalox]

Yeah, no, I'd rather not suggest the devs go towards the path of asset recycling dungeons just for 'extra difficulty'.

May I ask why?

The community already has shown that there's a divide in player motives while simultaneously the softcore players moan and groan when they don't get to see all content. That's why savage exists- it's just repurposed content.

It's a great way for the community to have its cake and eat it too. You can release beautiful dungeons that softcore players get to enjoy looking at and fulfilling story roles while also appeasing those seeking a higher challenge but not stepping on the toes of those who want to see it all.

Savage is different.

What you're proposing is harder versions of content that was originally designed to be cleared by most players. Savage is technically the standard version of raids that the devs do not expect most players to clear in the first place, the normal versions only exist so players could see the story for themselves without having to join some hardcore raid group. There's a pretty big difference.

Mind you, if the devs can pull off these harder dungeons in a meaningful way, then I'd be pleasantly surprised. But I don't expect that to happen, given how this game's gearing system has been working so far. The end path I see for this suggestion is either something that leads to gear ilvls accelerating once again/the new dungeons begin cannibalizing prizes from other content such as upgrade mats for tome gear, or the rewards matter so little in the long run that it turns out people don't care enough to run it.

snip.

Even if you're going from high to low, instead of low to high, it's still repurposed content. She's still right.

You are describing the current problem with dungeons, we only do them for tomestones and MSQ, once capped GL HF for expert roulette. Anyway, this expansion Yoshida promised a new mode of certain bosses with prestige rewards only.
