    As sad as this is, this does not surprise me at all.

    Unfortunately, this is a game where old content is not allowed to have too much value.

    Particularly unfortunate when the old content is manifestly superior to the new.

    I'd still like to rise above the rank of Captain via the GC Squad.

There's definitely nobody still progressing the MSQ who wants to enjoy older side content that is in the game, or people on Free Trial who can't access the newer stuff. This sort of hostile design towards people wanting to engage with older stuff in the game isn't anything new unfortunately.
    Free Trial players are unironically playing a better game than we are.

    I can't honestly say anything on Occult Crescent as I have not touched it... But let's say all it took for me to abandon any motivation to step foot in it was for a friend of mine to say they wanted to play through Eureka... Immediately jumped for joy at it, and even though it's only got 5-10 people in, I feel like I have fallen in love with it all over again.

    Not sure why ppl are acting like SE deleted the old exploratory zones, new players can still join them and farm the old relics since it's still there. If you still want the Eureka relic, you can just join them now in 2025 and collect the required items. Also, they still unlock unique mounts and glams that are not available elsewhere in DT.

    Imagine actually coming up with new rewards, instead of recycling old rewards and actively killing your old content. This dev team is legit amazing me with their bad choices at this phase.

    I think the point is, why take away more reasons from entering those exploratory zones? For some examples:
    • Why do eureka lockbox farming now? Both of the unique emotes that comes from these lockboxes are now available via OC + with greater loot% rate.
    • Why do eureka bunnies now if you want the Eldthurs/Petrel horns? OC chests drops them like candies.
    • Why do Dalriada now if you want the raptor mount? On top of having the hassle of gathering competent 3-5 players and dealing with the RNG...
    • Why do Delubrum normal now if you want the gold Gabriel mount? etc etc etc...

    I guess logograms and fragments are still left alone, so eh... but point still stands. These old zones do not need anymore 'de-incentivizing'.

    I mean, I've bought most of the items from old zones on the MP at full price before DT? I figured people would be more into getting non-tradeable items since the only way to stop something from being 100% devalued would be like the untradable EW minions, which I still don't have even after the drop rate boost.

    If anyone were into X item, it's easier to sell other items to make enough gil to buy the item directly over the general RNG, unless it's not allowed. Also, if most players wait long enough, it'll be recycled into Moogle Tome events, so stuff like wolves, gwibers, and even old Fate stuff will show up there.

    I do agree it's rough if anyone made considerable gil from the old zones, but there are different ways to make money as we get new content over time.

    I think they were just too lazy to add enough new rewards so they grabbed some stuff from older content to fill out the loot table

    Kinda disappointed the Morbol minion wasn't included. Wouldn't have minded picking that one up for 20gil instead of 20mil.
