Didn't say I agree with it, they have made plenty more money than they anticipated, but they are a business, so if they can do something like this and people keep paying, why wouldn't they.


I know, but this sort of laziness is what causes people to unsubscribe - especially when the content is considered frustrating (Which would hold true if the forums are any indication).
Basically they shouldn't have hyped up the Zodiac Quests if it was going to be more tedium than trial. There's a large difference between -
"We don't think many people will have their Animus (Because the content is challenging)"
and
"We don't think many people will have their Animus (Because you literally have to devote your week to grinding)"
They opted for tedium and now they probably soured expectations for the rest of this questline.

Working as intended? Who can tell but the developers?
Working as expected? Seems more accurate to their previous statement regarding how many players would be prepared for the Novus quests come patch time.
And for those of you saying that the Animus/Novus quest weapons are only for the "grinders" and "no lifers", consider it a commitment rather than a requirement. I for one will be incredibly happy I was committed to keeping up with the quests for the (hopefully) wonderful reward at the end of the line.
Yoshi spelled this out very carefuly before people, he said the options were either weekly lockouts, or an absurdly low drop rate, and people still whined about weekly lockouts.
So guess what Yoshi had the devs do?
I saw this coming miles away, good thing I made enough popcorn.
Your sig is VERY ironic right now.


I never agreed with it. But when you talk about coil vs FATE RNG, I felt the need to remind that despite that both have RNG determining drops, there is a difference between a guarantee drop system vs all or nothing.
You should have bought an authenticator.....
Your tears feed me....
As 2.25 drops during the week that coil echo was stated to increase. I wouldnt be surprised if 2.28 drops when the next level of echo for coil is scheduled XD. 3 weeks?
What I don't understand is the people who are still doing it slow..are going to still do it slow regardless of when Novus comes out. So the only people getting held back are people who completed Animus. I really don't care what anyone says. I go to class 20 hours a week, clinical 20 hours a week, and study for 10 - 20 hours. Was the grind fun... not really. But completing felt great. You either want to devote the time or you don't. But as usual if enough entitled people complain about how hard it is, how un-fun it is, they will make if more fun, which is also known as easy. The nicest things in mmo's across the board came at the cost of sweat and pain and quite a bit of RNG.
