New Relic weapon quest - are we down to 1 hour content already?

[yukiiyuki]

You all understand that this "1 Hour" of Content comes after multiple hours of Alliance raids and quests, right?

It seems everyone either missed this part or is ignoring it:

Players must first complete the main scenario quest "Shadowbringers" and the sidequest "The City of Lost Angels."

That is straight out of the patch notes.

If you were like me, and had no interest in the Ivalice raids back in Stormblood, if you want the i485 relic, you have to do the whole Ivalice quest-line.

There's that grind, there's that "needing to go through older content to help the newbs," there's that "we need story", etc. that people kept asking for back during Eureka. It's just that some of you already completed it and didn't know about it, so grats and all that.

Well, for opening raids, you need to be 70 lvl, that means you need to go through main story since lvl 1, also you need gear, you missed whole game, so much content. It's not like we actually played the game and was ready for relic farm.
