[Suggestion] Bring Back Yokai Watch-like Fate Rewards

[Kisagami]

The Yokai Watch event was really fun this year. I’d never seen so many people at so many varying states of game progression all doing fates together to unlock the pets and weapons. I know Square Enix is loathe to go back to old content, but with the gaming industry’s remastered and rereleases, nostalgia has proven to sell games. People like doing things they used to enjoy again - perhaps with some revamped rewards they’d be encouraged to.

There are many people who are new or started a new character and would like to spend some time doing the world content - but it is too time consuming or too hard. Special Fates with rewards lineups are the only fates who are frequented and called out. But why not bring life back to the FATES by putting in a long term mechanic similar to the Yokai Watch event. You could have them reward tokens that can be turned in for glamour gear, minions, or maybe even titles.

I love being able to collect minions, pets, mounts, and titles. I’m proud of my achievements. Lets bring some new life to older content, so that people leveling are encouraged to do FATES between their long queue times for a reward. These days people just stand around waiting for their dungeons to pop, but the Yokai Watch event brought life again to the game. (It was perfect timing too - I had just started on this character. I was up to level 30 in no time wit the aid I got doing fates)

This shouldn’t be too hard to implement - the mechanic is already there. We’ve seen it. Capitalize on it!

we had enough brainless fategrind stuff. (just my opinion)

[AiharaMizuki]

After Atma, Animus, Aspected Crystals.....no more fategrind pls

[Jxnibbles]

Beast tribes, Atma, Animus, Aspected Crystals, Diadem, Light farming and most event based fates please no..

Stop.

[Lelila38]

Please no more braindead fate grinding for hours for those low rng drops (looking at you, Atma of the Waterbearer). Can we get some decent events with an actual story to it instead, please?

[DrWho2010]

Nope ppl are tired of the same old grind. After 4 years of this we need something new, something innovative. the only people that want this are the XI nostalgists.

[Zeonsilt]

Dear God, please no.

Well I agree on making fates rewarding. There's no reason for them to be braindead, either. Next expansion they could/should make harder fates that are interesting and have mechanics, rewards suitable for endgame players. Mini open-world raids basically. Fates don't need to have a bad reputation if they do them well.

[DrWho2010]

prob is you make it too enticing it crashes the zone with too many people wanting to do it like with ixion at the beginning. don't make it rewarding enough ppl do it once during the first couple weeks and then its dead. having to constantly change/update rewards to keep people coming back for such content isn't what I think devs should spend their time on.
