We are missing Content between Normal and Extreme. Wrong Audience for Chaotic

[Havenchild]

That's not true.
The community mostly complained about Bozja being boring visually and yet another fate system.

The community overall absolutely complained about Diadem, but especially Eureka and Bozja, as being grindy, glorified fate trains. It was vastly unpopular content overall. Bozja ONLY escaped slightly from the negative sentiment because for a time period in SHB, it was the primary way of getting EXP, post them nerfing PVP EXP and before buffing dungeon EXP. But initially all were received poorly for both the fate system and in tangent, the requirements of the relic weapon being spam x dungeon/raid. This is likely why they forego'd an expedition in EW and also why Yoshi-P openly mentioned he was "surprised" that people actually wanted exploratory zones again.

People cry about anything on the internet, not really a new or groundbreaking point there. "You can mess up at least 2 towers at any given time, IF..." okay, not every raid will have shields ready to go for missed towers. Yes. The complainers DO want another alliance raid in general. Since, yknow, that's what was marketed. A harder 24 person alliance raid. Not a 24 person Savage trial thats Savage difficulty. The community is 100% a problem, but if you're going to forgive the developers blatantly messing this raid up in specific (which is ALSO a problem), then you as well are part of that problem.

Actually, news suggest....

Official PLL Digest - Claims Savage difficulty

Unofficial Translation of PLL - Claims initial goal was Extreme, but it's tuned closer to Savage 1/2 when factoring in 24 people. Note: this is the only place that mentions Extreme. Not that I'm saying it wasn't said but even then there's acknowledgement that it was tuned higher.

So all confirming knowledge we have of Yoshi-P and devs comments on the content was that it was in fact having an expected difficulty of Savage 1 or 2, not extreme. Community is gaslighting itself.
