Eureka 2.0

[Reinha]

If they remove the pseudo-leveling then Eureka 2 could be fun. I don't actually mind a FATE grind. It was everything else about Eureka that was the crappy part.

[Saefinn]

If they improve on what was bad about Eureka then great. I am of the philosophy of "improve, don't remove". If an idea is good but it's execution is bad, change what's bad.

I hated Anemos and Pagos, but I liked the concept and think with a few changes it could be a lot more fun.

I hope they have learned from Eureka to make this more engaging. As I understand (because I gave up before then) Pyros and hydratos offered good improvements.

But waiting on more info on what we will actually get.

I for one am extremely excited for Eureka 2. All I do these days is Eureka, so please please please bring us more!

Casual is someone who doesn't take the game seriously and has fun. Which is most players.

If that's the case, why go for a relic then. Tomestone gear should be plenty.

For some players, that is enough. Relics are mainly for the glamour game in the end regardless.

Yeah, I really don't understand how Yoship approved that. Relic is casual heaven, why lock casual content behind raiding/hardcore stuff?

The Idealized gear is unlikely to be the only way we get dyeable AF4 gear. There will likely be an unweathering step added in the future that will give dyeable AF4 with 2 materia slots. The EX and Idealized gears 5 materia slots are there for the midcore+ playerbase not casual players.

Midcore playerbase doesn't really exist in XIV.

More like victim of content that not relevant after 2 weeks. But there is a lot of people who dont do the content game gives to them, just because its PVE and you need to do something more than read.

Speaking about content getting irrelevant, could please elaborate us on how latest ultimate is still being done by handful of players? lol
I choose eureka over everything else, world content with ton of people and FC is better than repeatable trials/raids.

I wouldn't go into this expecting the alternative to be easy, whatever the Solo-friendly alternative is going to be will match the grind of Eureka otherwise players will just funnel into the easier one.

Though i wager Eureka 2 will be the easier grind as it'll go quicker due to constant large amounts of players +probably want push players into content they spent proper time into developing not just go farm old content for tomes to buy sands or grind light which wonder how many have done pre light buffs.

Other then Pagos stage "pre-nerfs" Eureka Stage 1-3-4 was the easiest Relic grind once got past initial level hit max for each Stage it was easiest Relics to obtain.. so it'll be interesting to see how Eureka 2 goes since complaints will probably bring nerfs to the grind & the possible removal of Down-leveling with maybe earlier mounting / or mounting right away.

Midcore very much does exist, it's just that the "midcore" moniker has been deeply co-opted and most actual midcore players get bundled into casual.
