    I'm okay with this. At least it's directly related to Eureka and makes thematic sense being a reward for doing Eureka content.

    Unlike a number of rewards from previous Eurekas (*cough* form and function hairstyle *cough cough* /shiver and /scheme emotes) that didn't belong in there and were only included as an incredibly dirty way to lure in players who otherwise would have no interest in that type of content.

    I just want to express how happy I am that for once there is nothing that I desperately want out of Hydatos. That means I'm finally free to treat Eureka as a form of entertainment available at my discretion and at my own pace, as opposed to a chore whose availability and quality is dictated by a variable number of inconsistent, unreliable strangers.

    I just hope that if they attempt to do another iteration of Diadem, they will let it stand on its own merits and cater exclusively to the people who enjoy Diadem-type content. If Eureka was really supposed to be a love-letter to FF11, they should have filled it chock-full of iconic FF11 stuff, nothing but unashamed pandering and nostalgia. That would have probably been received much better by a much smaller but more passionate audience. Random Gold Saucer rewards and relics did not need to be held hostage by Eureka. Designing niche content and then incentivising an unnecessarily wide array of players to play it for hundreds of hours has hopefully been proven to have been a terrible decision.
