    In my experience up to pagos, Eureka transfers all the grinding done in the open world to a zone designed for grinding. I havent progessed past pagos because i cant think of anything worse to do with my time. Not to mention losing your mount in pagos seemed like a massive screw you after working to get it back. I want progress. Not regression.

    Many people have said the later zones get better but honestly cant be bothered. Baldesions Arsenal or relic weapon is not enough of a carrot for me to endure the torture of pagos.

    How can you cope with each new open-world zone where flying is unavailable after you acquired it in an earlier zone ? Or with every expansion when you go from level cap to entry level ?

    Y: I usually compare FFXIV with a theme park, but the Forbidden Land of Eureka won’t be a place where everyone would want to go. For example, there are people who don’t want to go to horror houses because they don’t see the point in getting scared on purpose. For example, on a date, the boyfriend might want to invite the girlfriend to go the horror house, but the girlfriend just doesn’t seem to find it fun. In other words, it’s not like everyone wants to go to the horror house, but there are people who just love the adrenalin rush they get from it. Think of Eureka as something like that.

    This is such a flawed argument, you know a new expansion comes out every 2 years, not every other patch? It's a lot easier to tolerate something when you have to get through it every 2 years, not 4 times in an expansion besides the actual expansion leveling and flying unlocks. I can say for myself that I'm tired of these arbitrary leveling systems in content where it serves no purpose, in the actual game you level your job and there's actual progression, in Eureka you level because SE wanted to pad out the content. It would have made much more sense if the weapon had it's own progression system, you'd be leveling the weapon, the whole point of the content. At least then there'd be a proper reason for the leveling.
