People don't know how to take criticism anymore, and bad play is rewarded with with a coddling mentality. Yes, this is a casual game for the most part - that doesn't mean people need to walk on eggshells in fear of getting reported for pointing out things. This whole 'please don't say anything even slightly negative' mentality that we seem to be going towards and the devs seemingly pushing towards it is creating a disturbing trend.

Except for the Moogle tribe quests I don't see any mention of any off the other tribe quests, or other side quests. I do know that except to get the anima relic many don't bother with the tribe quests. However it would good to see how many actually do those. Main reason I can see from the survey, most seemed to be focused only on dungeons and raids. which is most of the survey. I have had some tell me that the tribe quests are beneath them to do. I think it would be good to see if others share or don't share that opinion. Hunts are not mentioned either. I, and I know others use them as an alternative to the dungeon grind.



The problem I see with this is that it still mainly reaches only forum/reddit dwellers, which tend to be a very different type of player to most others.
Usually a lot more dedicated but also with higher expectations, especially concerning difficulty.
Like for example, lots of people in this survey said Weeping City is just right in difficulty while ingame, you have most people whine about it being too hard.
Still, this gave very interesting insights so far
Too bad it's so limited and never asks for a reason. Like, there is a lot of content that gets the "I don't care about it" treatment, but it would be important to find out WHY people don't care for it. Is it just a general dislike of the type of content? Were they put off by how complicated it is to get into it, was it too hard, not rewarding enough, etc.? Stuff like that.
Like Caesaria pointed out, some results may be a bit random because people answered them with different scenarios in mind (for example, (s)he considered his hunting for the new songs for the Orchestrion to be participation in that content. I, on the other hand, counted how regularly I use the actual Orchestrion to change the music in my house, and so on.)
But yeah, in general I'm positively surprised by the results so far
Except for certain content (like LoV), people seem to be rather happy and satisfied with what they got and only want small improvements if at all.
Which is something I always suspected anyway, but it's easy to forget that with all the negativity in the forums :3



Well, at least difficulty is an extra question. I personally put "I don't care for this content" for Nidhogg EX and then later picked "Too hard" for it, which serves as reason why I don't care for the content. If I can't DF it, I don't do it, basically.Like, there is a lot of content that gets the "I don't care about it" treatment, but it would be important to find out WHY people don't care for it.

I will be going to more in depth with another survey asking why on content that the majority of people dont care about.Too bad it's so limited and never asks for a reason.

Very nice survey. As someone who doesn't raid savage and think I am a scrub in terms of skill, I was surprised when I marked a lot of 'easy' or 'too easy' and only one 'challenging' in the survey.
