Castrum is dead. Please do something, Squenix

Okay, dude, you caught me. I am about to go on a rant, because I am already incredibly annoyed after spending probably 30 hours in this trash.

Borzja is dog poop trash, only reason to do it is for the future content - which will be equally as garbage, but hopefully more rewarding. At this point you can't even advance. Oh I should add "find a free company and do it!" I don't want to join a free company to do BORZJA. IMAGINE joining a free company to become near obligated to do trash content. Yeah, nah, I'm good. Worthless. I've spent probably 30 hours in this zone doing FATEs, and registering every hour for one failed Castrum after the next once I hit 10. "just do it bro".

METTLE! DUELS! INDIGO STAR!

Oh, I'm not saying it's good. I agree with you 110%. But I personally don't mind it, mostly because it's mindless. Castrum though...that's a bit of a sore spot for me. They could have, and should have, handled all of that better. They could have handled Bozja as a whole better, really. But for what it is, a glorified Fate grind, it is about as casual as it gets. I can just listen to music/watch Netflix and come and go as I please. I like THAT I guess. Castrum can jump off a cliff though.

Sorry, I was just really annoyed at the time of posting. Wasn't really directed at you. Just had to let off some steam. Like I get it, some people like this kind of content. I've seen people defend it in chat, but like, for me, it's a means to an end. I'll do it for the gear, and rewards. That's about it. I wish they had made the zone fun, but unfortunately they didn't. Castrum itself, is okay as an instance. Decent raid, but the way it is implemented is definitely just AWFUL. I don't really understand why they have it limited to every hour a pop, and players in zone or whatever, but it's arbitrary and needs to be removed. As we were discussing in the other thread, they need to up the rewards as well. I can get more coins in less time grinding FATEs in there. Considering that hour long wait - if you even get in and can clear it.
