Okay they weren't lying about the relic

[Wasselin]

doing HW relics recently. The entire thing is basically all poetics with a few more interesting things added in.

Surely next expansions relic's will be tied to the rumored new Field Operation and people can complain about how hard it is again.. or something.. (assuming they did at the time)

HW relics were basically just poetics. EW relics aren't really different from the past except the duties aren't assigned. You do whatever you want for tomes. The whole reason they probably assigned those duties in the past was to keep the duty finder churning. It wasn't to create engaging gameplay. It's kind of funny that people are nostalgic for it.

People complain about everything, so yes they did complain about Eureka and Bozja. Look at this thread, people are complaining that something they already knew was going to happen happened. They persist in complaining even though a new field operation has been announced.
