Yoshida-san: Please Give Us a BETTER System for Relics and Future 2.0 Challenges!

[Enfarious]

LOL everyone asked for long term content but wasn't really specific about what you wanted. Yoshi offers something up and everyone pitches a bitch. If I am not mistaken, half the posts about the stats for relic weapons were people saying "meh, you can make better weapons with materia" So now we are bitching about how we obtain weapons no one really wants? Amazing.

Don't get me wrong, I am in agreement about the drop rates for the primal stuff, but Yoshi himself has even said all that will change in 2.0. But many of us have been playing since release and those that haven't at least prob know a few that have. Which means we either are someone or know someone that has multiple crafting jobs at 50 and have millions of gil, which to me anyway, solves the only real trouble with this system, the crafting part. Spilt milk to me but to each his own i guess. Event he drop rates for end game stuff in xi was based on some sort of luck system. This doesnt really seem much different.

Asked for long-term content, yes. Asked for faux long-term content based solely on repetition created by shit random drop rates, no. Thousands of posts say, "Low drop rates for some stuff is fine, but we want to see actual progression also." Garuda was almost spot on, now we've got exactly what we asked to not see more of all over again.

Saying, "We're going to change that down the road. For now we're just gonna give you this one thing[Garuda] that works how you want, so you know we could do it. Instead we're going to inundate you with exactly what your saying you don't want." is not how to keep your player base.

I get that it sucks to hear that your product is disappointing, as a chef I hear it more than I like. The answer is NEVER to ignore that feedback no matter how it comes at you. This amount of feedback about something with it being so heavily against what is present screams for a change. It really makes no difference if you "thought" you did well if all your paying customers walk away and your left with too few to keep the doors open.
