Dailies are complete trash

[Nebelheim]

Casuals also got a new dungeon and a new alliance raid, though I guess some here view the alliance raid as "hardcore" in other threads.

I don't consider alliance raid hardcore but its a once and done piece of content most people complete once unless they want to grind glams and other things.

We also grind it for the only set of level 630 gear we have access to. I guess the most extreme casuals / RP tier people don't care, but even casuals can have some pride in gearing up their characters to the extent we can without statics.

I suppose that might make me mid-core, just with nothing else to do right now. I'm guessing those criterion dungeons were not popular and didn't get a return on the development investment for midcores. I guess we will wait and see if they give us anything for the relic this expansion.

While I mentioned I have days where I can only play 5-10 minutes, there are many days I play a lot more (else I wouldn't have so many jobs at 100). So I agree we need content for everyone.

I mostly wish there was more to do because I completed everything except need to try extreme and savage. But wish we got relics and the other future side stuff sooner.

I agree with you for sure. I think for me I don't care that this content is - well, whatever. Just 5 minute timewasters. I know a lot of MMO's have low-effort dailies that people can do, or ignore. So it's fine for those people.

I think the problem is we are lacking other content - so seeing this as an offering without something more mid-core feels bad.

I agree we have to wait for the back end of the expansion for a majority of the promised content while the first 2 patches feel light on things. I want more content to last throughout the whole expansion and not have to wait until the .3 patch for a majority of the features promised.

I did some quick calculations in my head. 7.2 is coming at the end of March or the beginning of April, which means if 7.25 is coming 8 weeks later (like patch 6.25) that would be at the end of May. All winter and all spring before there is a chance of getting relic content. But that's not all. Bozja field zones (Bozjan Southern Front) didn't release until 6.35. So there is a chance people have to wait another 4½-5 months for that. October 2025.

Shadowbringers was released on July 2, 2019, and Dawntrail was released on July 2, 2024. So it's pretty easy to compare the timelines. 7.15 is already coming later than 5.15 did.

Bold of you to assume that they'll maintain the current pace and not slow down.
