Finally something to be hyped about

[Axxion]

No, the variant dungeons are also new. It's 3 new difficulty levels. It would have been simpler for them to be named Normal, Extreme and Savage.

Just because we normally get all of the other content I listed, doesn't meant that the content is not new. It is a new dungeon, it is a new set of savage raids and it is a new extreme trial.

What he means is that content that is new to the normal patch cycles. here me out. We already know that we get a new dungeon always tied to the story, a new trial, etc. all we get is the same old things that no one is surprised about them, however adding the savage dungeons that we have been waiting for and after many interviews with streamers we finally getting this after they said they could not "implement" is something new that might help with the down time in major cycle

I know what was meant, but it doesn't change the fact that the content is new. It's not a new content type, but to ignore the fact that it is new artwork, new fights, new models and new level design is unfair. People's complacency and bitterness has caused them to overlook the fact that the content they are used to getting is still new. New content is good.

I dont think its bitterness it just that some players what something more interesting than just the same old same old dont get me wrong thats great that we got it but how long will it last? you know how fast player burn through content.

And besides do you really think the average player care on how much time put into the work? no they want to know if its fun or not

new fights, ill give you that but however the mechanic will always be reused assets.

New models but more of reskin over the existing models. Heck one model i was surprised they "changed" was the lala one. remember they used a lala model for dulia-chai

How about this, the only content that was unexpected was the criterion/variant dungeon and the Island Sanctuary. Everything else was expected with 6.2.

So how many unusual, new content types are required for everyone here to be satisfied? 2 fresh ideas every patch? 4? 10? 100? And would it be reasonable to expect that much creativity when new ideas for content types are hard to come by - just look at all the games that copy other games whenever there is a new idea.

I would rather they forego any shiny new toy if they fix existing half finished content they threw out in the wild. Remember Lords of Vermillion? That was a neat idea, too bad about that execution. :/

I expect to have fun. That's it. It's not the amount of content that matters. I've played games where one piece of content kept me happily occupied for hundreds of hours. Then I've played others (including this game) where there's a lot of development resource heavy content that I'm finished with or bored of in a week.

Look at recent content. Aglaia? Done first day in 40 minutes and the gear isn't useful. Elephant tribe are 5 minute a day chores. Dungeon is absolutely a once and done worthless content. Crafting is bot ridden. EX3 is a waste of effort because we get the echo, droprate buff and totem trade later.

The devs are working flat out and creating content, sure. But personally I just don't enjoy most of it and find myself logging off to play single player games. I only sub for Savage.
