Can't say I'm thrilled by the confirmation we're not getting exploration content this expac.

Likewise. Eureka and Bozja brought players together in a way that other pieces of content simply do not. There's some neat little micro-communities that popped up in the same way as how there is a big network of players who follow and organise hunt trains.

This game gets so increasingly more encouraging to solo play that I wish they made it an offline game from the start so it didn't feel like an on-rails easy mode FF that required its own sub. Then they could just tie the only content that still feels like an online game behind an optional multiplayer hub like Monster Hunter does: the raids

I think that's been a given for some time. Sadly I love Eureka and Bozja and and looking at this upcoming relic with a sense of dread. If it's centered on running old content aka HW relics I won't be happy but I suspect that's what it'll be. It's what a certain group in the community has clamored for and I suspect they'll be getting what they want.

I loved BA, Castrum, Delibrium and DRS but I suppose we're getting the new dungeons as a replacement.

Thank the Twelve and good riddance.

Thank the Twelve and good riddance.

It’s literally more content and offers square a way to experiment with new skill design and have people be able to do things outside of their role id much prefer that than “go clear crystal tower 86 times for these books so you relic gets stronger”

Whilst I am really looking forward to Island Sanctuary, I just know as soon as it launches people will rip it apart for not being an exact copy of Housing, despite how they keep saying it will not be. House really needs a revamp and to be made more fair, but I feel they have made it clear enough that Island Sanctuary will not be it.

As for the Relic Quests… hmm… on the one hand, I really did love Bozja and its story, and it was a fun mode to farm when you have enough players around. That said, the fact it becomes a lot harder to play such content post-Expansion really can hurt. I hope they find a way to make such content more solo friendly. For the moment I am curious and interested in how they will handle the Relic quest. I really love the initial idea of mixing it with the Manderville quests, of all things, and hopefully this will make farming for these relics more assessable for expansions beyond now. Its been fun doing the HW relic quest recently, like a personal challenge you can farm over time.

I'm so glad we're getting less content this expansion

Island sanctuary, deep dungeon, variant/criterion dungeons, a Hildebrand relic quest and crystalline conflict is "less content" lol.
