Most of this discussion seems to be revolving around assumptions about what a casual player is.
Since there's never going to be an agreement about that, wouldn't it be better to stick to what you personally expect and want to see instead of trying to claim insight into what the undefined "casual" player wants? Even if everyone could agree on a definition of "casual", casual players are still going to have different interests.
There's a fair amount of content coming out with various appeal. If none of it is of interest to you or won't keep you engaged past the first time doing it, talk about that instead of trying to speak for others who may not want what you want.
Precisely.
Society Quests : Finished in 2 weeks time, unless you're using them to level jobs which as this patch isn't coming out to mid November most omni DoM/DoW levellers will probably be done if not close.
Custom Deliveries : Finished in 5 weeks, unless you're using them to level DoL/DoH jobs. See above.
MSQ + Hildebrand : Finished in 2-3 hours (if that)
New Trial : Once and done because besides Yojimbo normal trails drop nothing but a rare drop TT card. Why keep doing them?
Alliance Raid : Upgrade token then meh.
I've mentioned before I'm a DF denizen, but I was hoping for the new Exploration Zone. Not a fan of the non-DF raids in them but running about doing the "Skirmishes" was a fun alternative to roulette levelling. But I'm guessing they're gonna stick with the Bozja method of 7.3 and 7.5.
Oh well, some things never change I guess.



OP probably hasn't even completed all the casual content the game has available right now.
If so, I'd like to see their Ozma mount, all available relics from all expansions, all completed versions of the Elemental Eurekan armor, every single piece of the Bozjan sets upgraded, every triple triad card, maxed Trusts in every xpac, all deep dungeon mounts (can be done with team, don't need to do solo), every BLU spell and every challenge from Masked Carnival completed, every mount and gear set from Island Sanctuary, every rare animal from Island Sanctuary, all crafter/gatherers with at least 100K points in Ishgard Restoration, and I could keep going.
OP is asking for content they're probably never gonna finish, while not having finished a ton of stuff that's currently available. Either that, or I'll be damned if they can provide all the things I mentioned above.
What is it that you want then? A padded MSQ with a segment where you have to go kill 1000 A Hunt Marks to continue the story? An Alliance Raid that allows you to run it only once every month? Hildy quests being time gated to only one every week?? Do you people want all those BS retention mechanics shoved into XIV? Do you seriously think OP would even bother to complete any of those tasks??
This thread is insane.

Corrected a bit.... Because this is an insane amount of farm for a casual with little time and patience.OP probably hasn't even completed all the casual content the game has available right now.
If so, I'd like to see theirOzma mount, all available relics from all expansions, all completed versions of the Elemental Eurekan armor, every single piece of the Bozjan sets upgraded, every triple triad card,maxed Trusts in every xpac, all deep dungeon mounts (can be done with team, don't need to do solo), every BLU spell and every challenge from Masked Carnival completed,every mount and gear set from Island Sanctuary, every rare animal from Island Sanctuary,all crafter/gatherers with at least 100K points in Ishgard Restoration, and I could keep going.

It's hilarious how some of you act angry that MSQ ends in 3 hours, but when presented with any of the grinds listed above that will never go away, and that you can do whenever you want at whatever pace you want, suddenly you don't have time.
This thread is insane.


This "you" doesn't include me.
I'm just stating facts about casual player.
its one thing to not do it because of lazyness another because content is dead. I started a lot of this stuff but never end one because why the hell it will bring me nothing. I really would like getting the ozma mount but if i ask around who is in for some eureka people laugh at me so whats now ? Joining 10 diffrent discord servers? yeah ill probably do it but i am insanely stupid. Also i did some savage content i am far away from beeing good at it but we did it. So what am i now i wouldnt say i am casual since i start now with current savage after a big break for prep for FRU. Still i dont do the stuff you mentioned because its dead content ( yeah i know you can faceroll as a WAR over Eureka ) i dont understand where the problem is for people wanting casual stuff to do which are up to date. goddman other games do it aswell. Cool events open world content events from older expansions with rewards and so on. For a long sight people who are "casual" are the ones who are mostly will pay the game after the savage and ultimates are done. Correct me if i am wrong
most of the grinds you listed are extremely boring and unfun. hope that clears things up
