“Simply speak...” – Request for more in-depth contents

[Lurex]

Yay! So now I can go talk to NPC, get my horn, call Gobbue and stand around and do nothing. Thanks SE.

This "gift" is no substitute for content - which is what the players want.

The Goobbue itself is no more than a model-swap for the Chocobo. It's mere cosmetic change and a poorly contrived one at that.

It's a lettered patch. It's not supposed to have tons of content in it and no one is expecting some sort of epic adventure. But it smacks of just plain laziness (perhaps forced on them by the chronic spoonfeeding required by the Lodestone community?) to just have an NPC puke a Goobbue in your lap.

They should play vanguard saga of heros. The mount quests on those were EPIC. Just speaking to an npc and getting this new mount instantly is pathetic.

[Majidah]

It is a gift. How do you receive a gift? By doing a long and potentially life threatening mission?

No.

Here I was under the impression that the community wanted content...

[Gramul]

Geez, can you people stop complaining about every. Single. Thing?!
They're already working hard enough for 1.21 and 2.0.
As Bruce said, this is just a gift... more like a promo item (y'know, the thing that usually come with a Collector's Edition, and those don't have quests AFAIK).

Stop complaining.

/endthread act II

It's not like it's a group of people all complaining about everything as it comes out. Each thing released will have individual people who don't like it and will post about it. Even if they've never complained before. That's just how opinions are.

I'm not against this as a simple gift. But I don't want people going around thinking a desire for deeper content, even in simple gifts, isn't unwarranted either.

I see myself more as someone with greater common sense than the average FFXIV player. Far from a white knight. You'll never know when my blade forged from the bones of Judith Sheindlin will strike you down with some truth.

Bye.

I'd much rather they focus their resources on patch 1.21 and beyond, than taking aside people to work on a quest for a gift that won't even be obtainable post 2.0

Not according to what Yoshi said in his last letter. Go read it, and I quote:

"We’re already working on content for the year’s first patch, 1.20b, and developing the job system, job quests, and new dungeons (there’s two of them!) slated for 1.21 "
