Regarding Firmament Titles For 5.3

[TW-Luna]

I tried to read the Japanese thread on this subject with the help of Google Translate, they seem to be a lot more split on their opinion over there vs here. Though it was heartening to see in the LIX Digest that they said:

However, we understand there may be varying opinions regarding the titles, so the titles may end up different from the one featured in the broadcast.

So we'll see, here's hoping that they don't do more than just add numerals to the titles to distinguish between seasons.

Yeah he said that as soon as he saw the live comments in Japanese freaking out over their change of decision. It was a very on the spot remark to get people to settle down.
Sadly I don't believe he actually wants to change it since it's probably already in the pipeline for the change and changing that would be slightly unproductive of them.

I can only hope that he proves me wrong.

Also, changing the numerals in the titles are pretty much just as bad for any achievement hunter.
Because they will still need to grind that out.

Remember Greed-Only loot rolls? How long that took to get reversed?
My hope is tepid at best based on history.

HONESTLY if they just added numerals, it'd be fine with that as long as the title stayed the same other than the numerals. I would be far less inclined to participate for just that reason. Leave th efirst one as Saint of the Firmament. This season put a II behind it

But why change it at all then? Even with just giving it another number it still a new achievement. Something that achievement hunters would want especially since its limited. If that is all to change than maybe not change it at all. Just let it stay that way and people will participate since you can only get 12 winners per round anyway.

they already pretty much stated they don't care about achievement hunter by removing diadem anyway, why start now?

Gotta start somewhere

And now they're flat out removing the achievement for completing the flying chocobo quest since the quest itself will be removed. Obviously everyone here has it, but any new players are just flat out screwed out of that achievement forever now. SE is really setting a bad standard this expac with all these instances of achievement removal and it is really making me fear for what they're going to remove without warning next.

"Surprise! Eureka achievements have been removed because you should just be doing Bozja now anyways, you have 24 hours to get all 15 Eureka weapons before they're gone forever!" Obviously they would never do that. But you know what, is it really that obvious anymore with the direction they seem to be taking towards old content and old achievements?

To be fair, they're starting extremely late in the game. So that Chocobo achievement is meh at best. And won't count towards anything for them. This has to do with very very recent additions and going back on a statement they made regarding it.
