Dear Developers

[Niqote]

Here is actual (More or less) dialogue in your new content patch.

Krile:"So how do you like this new style of battle?"
Warrior of Light: "It's needlessly complicated."
Krile: "Well, I can't disagree. But it is what it is."

If you thought enough players were going to find this system overly complicated and tedious, to the point that you allowed their in-game character to express as much...Why did you include it in the game in the first place?

Because people need to relax and take a joke for what it is.

The developers are people with lives as complicated and emotional as ours is, the amount of disapproval they receive even when purposely implementing things that the player base specifically asked for is depressing.

In this case:
-People asking for XI 2.0,
-Asking for elements to mean something,
-For non linear content that isn't a complete faceroll,
-For relic equipment not just weapons,
-For spawnable NMs that reward you,
-For more danger in the world

etc etc etc multiple requests were peppered into Eureka.

edit: And even then HOW is it complicated. The system literally tells you what the offensive and defensive elements are if you simply target the mob and it takes 2 seconds to switch ^^;;;;
