Should FF14 take a new route? Discussion

[Airget]

The mentality of letting old content die is a bad one. They need to take advantage of the "lv sync" option for content like Extreme Trials.

They should consider the idea of adding new loot to old content that helps in new content, like say unique accessory drops in Diadem that help in Eureka. New loot in old PoTD that helps in new PoTD. rare "primal armor" drop that can only be obtained if you do it level synced.

A little nugget of a reward to entice people to try the challenge and keep old content alive.

They kind of did this already. Old raids had increased drop rates as a sync party. People don't want to do them because "some players are bad".

::Stares at the numerous people complaining about the NEW Eureka content::

I can't take this thread seriously when I see the developers constantly trying things out and players hating everything because it wasn't how they imagined. I hate seeing here the demand of "hey give us something new" and "oh I hate this new thing." along with "Why do they always give us the same old content?" I would go insane if I was developer seeing all of this.

Think about it. They hype things and ask you to please look forward to something. But when you get is its the same thing you've already seen. Think of it like going to your favorite food joint. and they hype you up for a new dish, except its the same dish you've had before, with just a different sauce. I like Eureka, as a matter of fact I have been thinking of suggesting to make the diadem serve the same purpose as Eureka for the 3.0 relic weapons as an alternate route.
