Zepla: The Players Endwalker Left Behind

[R041]

...

I think I'd be more inclined to want to play EX as a Casual/Midcore player if they were more.. Random? And offered more types of rewards overall. Them just being weapon glam and mount don't make me want to repeat them 99 times with randos that only talk when they want to yell at each other. Bozja Critical Engagements hit different because they offered natural player engagement and a better reward structure due to the systems that exist in Bozja itself.

We also seriously lack any form of tutorial instances for those type of mechanics, so they're not very comfortable from the get-go. I guess you could say the Normal is the Tutorial, but eh.

Why do I get the feeling we prop up the Cash Shop by reducing the reward output for the actual encounters?

Imagine if doing this type of content were more similar to Retainer rewards, and we didn't actually have Retainers. That would actually get me digging into more of this type of content. I mean, it's why people can stomach POTD even though it's braindead after the 100th run.
