Near the end of Stormblood and still no Daily Challenge for astralagos

[Risvertasashi]

You could give PvP all the incentives in the world but unless it's actually attractive to play, people won't do it

Frontline Roulette AKA Daily Challenge has refuted your argument before you've even begun.

It's here. It works.

People will PvE because it's enjoyable, it's consistently rewarding at all levels, it has a better progression system, it's linked to the storyline etc

Spoken like someone who wasn't here before roulettes existed.

It was an exact inversion of the above. Queues died and you couldn't get into older content... until they were implemented. It was especially a problem for latecomers to story progression, too.

Most recent example being Alliance raids. You'd *maybe* get a pop on a single day's evening, when the community agreed to all queue for them at that time. Same situation as Astralagos now.

SE puts in a roulette. And the content lives once more.

I doubt it's going to get a roulette until they add another map for it. I thought I remembered reading somewhere they were planning on doing that, but don't recall the timeline for it.

Would have been nice if they had added our current map to the Frontlines roulette in the meantime, though.

By all levels, I meant all difficulties at max level, not all character levels.

Also people AFK in Frontlines for the rewards, which was an argument I'd already made, if you'd read the whole argument before the "I've been here longer than thou and I know what works" spiel, then we'd have saved two posts.
