    Also, nothing dangerous? Maybe if you're a high level (and not soloing level 20+ mobs), but low level, everything can kill you pretty quick.

    Deal with the fact people enjoy Eureka. It makes life easier.
    Why are you posting this? my reply to the post right above you fits as a reply to you:

Sure, there's the elemental wheel, leveling process (which was in PotD too though Eureka's is far, far slower) and the gorgeous scenery...but it has all the elements of Diadem from start to finish. Just has an XI skin to "mask" it. Only redeeming qualities are the currently easy relic weapons and armor, a mount, minions and glamour pieces. The last 3 rewards were in available in Diadem as well, granted they are completely new. (the glamour pieces, aside from 2, are not new, and are versions of HW or early SB pieces which can be dyed). But they're part of any new content so I wouldn't really say there's a correlation there. There's also lockboxes which were available in Diadem and PotD. Hardly new and innovative themselves, but surprisingly profitable.

    But yeah, Diadem 3.0 is accurate, regardless of whether you are able or willing to see it. I'd probably call it Diadem of the Dead, though, because it's basically a Diadem/PotD hybrid.
    adding:
    I can level 1 or level 11 or level 20, nothing is dangerous. It is simply annoying. This means, oh no people running this way? Ill get the aetherite next time because the monsters are too crammed in one place. In ffxi you could maneuver around, be skilled at being a "ninja" esp when you know distances and TS situations. You had to be because you did not have tons of people in one area due to it being a big world. Diadem 3.0 has tons of people packed into a little space while having your paths outlined with rails (most of the time) It is very small, there is always someone around incase you do not make that 10 feet point of resetting the monster. The ranges are too small to chase you and caring if you died or not there is a joke.

    I accept people like it, liking it is fine, what is not ok, is this thread:
    http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...-the-community

    People that like it, tend to go out of their way, such as your self, of not criticizing the game. Should take a look at my reply to this one post here:

Yeah they worked hard on it or whatever but so does literally every other player who worked hard for the money that they earned to but and pay the sub fees for this game. Trying to silence negative opinions is how you really kill a game since then all the devs would see will be satisfaction and praises then they will become complacent and stop trying as hard since hurr durr you don't know how game development works so you better stfu.
    This is why I do not get why people white knight and further confused why I do not see it existing on the Japanese OF. In the end the attempt is ironic in the effect it harms the game in the long run while not helping anything.

    Anyways your post was well thought out, +1 for you
    Doing what you are doing only harms the game, trying to silence people that do not like something. What if 50% of the player base was told "play a different game" for not liking this diadem 3.0? What would you think will happen after that? What will you think will happen if a large significant population pulled this sub like you want (15%+) it does not look good for the game, for the investors, and such. In the end your efforts only harm the game you love, so why do it?
