I feel like people are largely overthinking what is essentially just the same exact trickle of gear & other content we already get, just repackaged with a glossy menu to make it feel special somehow. You're still going to log in on Tuesday ,be done with the weekly grind after a few hours, and locked out of further progress entirely until the next week. The only slight positive is the shared ilvl across all jobs even though alt jobs will be nerfed by lack of materia bonus.
