Whats going on over there?

So no Female Hrothgar until next xpac although we were told otherwise at the beginning of this cycle.

Relic step locked behind a seriously unfunny and pointless part of the game that has the community up in arms the moment it was announced.

No new actual relic world building, nothing akin to Bozja or Eureka.

The new Criterion dungs are just copied from WoW's Mythic + content.

It may be time for the developers to decide whether they want to focus on FF16MayCry or their "magnum opus". The latter reeeaaalllyyyy feels to be stagnating at this point.

Weren't people crying up in arms about content similar to WoW Mythic+ though..?

I think it's too soon to say what the relic questline will and will not entail.

If by "people" you mean the few dozens of them world wide on these forums.

.
No people have longed for more challenging 4-man content, this is not just present on these forums. Dating back as far as SB with these requests, even as far as on Reddit. I would stand to argue that if I tried hard enough I could probably find it present on Q/A. Just as people wanted harder large-scale raids and their response was DRS.

They've apparently had enough feedback and demand on it to consider incorporating it into the game over whatever piece of content they elected to subtract/discontinue.

Pretty sure we weren't.

“Of course, we did consider adding female Hrothgar as well.”
“But again, we had our hands full with doing the male Viera, as well as the game. However – that said – we do plan to find an opportunity to add them in the future. We will be bringing the female Hrothgar. They will not come at the same time as the male Viera in 6.0, but it is coming.
“There was the option for us to wait until both were finished before releasing both of them at the same time, but we decided instead to release them one at a time, as they were finished.”

1. Where have they said that, I don't recall them announcing that Female Hroths will be making a drop on this expansion.

2. Same with you and all the other soulless people that doesn't have a sense of humor, you can just skip the cutscenes.

3. This is something that FFXIV is lacking, actual fun challenging dungeons and not braindead dungeons that you can w2w pull and spam one button

Dunno why people play this game if all they do is cry about every update that comes out. People are never satisfied.

Why would they add female Hrothgar before the graphical update?

I don't play WoW so I have no direct idea how Mythic+ works, but I've seen so many requests over time for FFXIV to copy it. So it's hardly fair to complain that they did it.

As for female Hrothgar, I'll join the chorus saying there has been no promise of any specific time frame beyond "they're coming later" – and logically the constant rate for new character model releases has been essentially one per expansion, but grouped in sets of two, so the pattern could have been that we got Au Ra x2 in 3.0, Hrothgar/Viera in 5.0 and Viera/Hrothgar in 7.0, but instead we got male Viera early. If female Hrothgar come in 7.0 they will be right on schedule.

It's strange...people complained about relics just being the same old Eureka style content and that it was getting bland...they dropped that here and there's still complaints of it being bland. Also you do realize modes can exist without being copies of another game yes? It seems no matter what they add that's new folks will say "oh this is just a copy of X game". Almost like you complain about a stagnant game yet want a stagnant game. Idk it's odd
