i dont know if i would call it nervous

but its cosmic exploration and beastmaster that will be a hit or miss for me

beastmaster will just be blu skined as bst and thats fine as its all se knows how to do but its the side content that will make or break it. atm blu's biggest flaw is why am i doing old content that i can easily unsync with my main job? its side content is also very limited and well past its prime or is aweful as who wants to be forced to do basically all old dungeons in only blu parties? its needs new fresh fun content to do that can be done solo or with others that's enjoyable.
sorry long rant back to bst the only thing that will stop it for me from being throw away content is fun side content like a bst arena where you can duel npc's and players for fun in a pokemon style fight. if all i can do is collect some beasts and then do old dungeons/trails and raids i will be meh'd to death.

my other big one is what big baddies can we catch as bst? we know it wont be able to enter eureka which i think would be the best option for some cool baddies to catch but we also know unlike blu we can't get any trial monsters cause they are all primals and do we want to really make the smn players made by being a beastmaster and running around with ifrit shiva titan? ravana? omega? ruby weapon? the answer is obviously not but what big cool monsters will we be collecting? it kinda just leaves dungeons left. there is a lot of well this most likely wont happen so what will to make it fun?

i will say i will play and lvl bst no matter what but i hope they find a good ground for replayability they i dont see with blu.

on to my second big one even though i have ranted up quite a storm.

cosmic explorations my biggest fear is it ends up close to ishgard restoration and i didnt touch it as it had zero appeal to me while i know many players will like it, it wont be for me i love the aspect of i dont have to actually do any crafting or real gathering so i personally hope its just a bigger more flushed out or even different but on the same idea level but with other players of island sanctuary on the terms of i dont have to lvl anythings besides maybe my planeteer volunteer rank and get mats in the maps and crafter the items needed for doing more and seeing more.


i will say on a good note solution 9 is the best looking map so far in game its super colorful and its not just some forest desert ruins temple or flying airship (at least atm).
