No, it's not melodramatic. When one activity makes all the others pointless and obsolete, then it's actually doing a huge disservice to the game, especially when you spend a lot of time and effort to create content like Syrcus Tower and Ramuh EX that most ouf your user base is completely ignoring and will continue to do so. Hunts is just bad designed content, and in its current form it should have no place in such a high quality game.
