So... anyone who is acutally please with the patch?

Personal opinion here but I honestly think this is probably the best x.1 patch we've gotten since 2.1 in terms of enjoyment. The Nier raid was absolutely fun, the new music and Nier arrangements are great to listen to on repeat visits, and the MSQ had one of my favorite cutscenes post expansion. The crafting changes hit my rotation hard but I'm adjusting and getting used to it. I haven't done the new EX trial yet and I'm hoping to try it out later this week, but my friend loves it.

The changes for leveling crafters/gatherers is absolutely bonkers. I went from 43-61 on my fisher with just 14 leves. A welcome change to be sure.

YES im with you I got all three of my gatherers who were at 32 to 53 in 2hour just getting nq mats. Ridiculous. But awesome.

The patch is great thus far.
Nier Raid is awesome, the Pixies Tribe is great and i have not done anything else yet aside from some MSQ.
This forum, all people do is complain tbh and is sickening at times. Crafting changes were needed, 3 chests for an outfit i think is fine for the raid and job changes seem good? I played DNC and RM only so not sure about the rest

So far, I love this patch. Regretting having to go to work today because I just want to fully immerse myself more. The MSQ is meaty adding a satisfying chapter to the main story content. The new zones are drop dead gorgeous and even the gear that drops is aesthetically pleasing. I don't think the forums are a fair measurement of content's success as 9/10 threads here complaining even when the game is at it's peak.

I freaking love this patch. The only thing I would have had an issue with was the 3 chest 24man loot, but not even that is an issue because I freaking love the raid. RNG will smile on me someday, but until then...Im rocking it lol.

So... when I head to the forum to share my excitement and my joy... there is no place. There is only:"Crafting is broken" - "housing suxx" - "why is nier glamour locked in a chest?!"


So I really would like to know if I'm the only one thinking this is quite a big and enjoyable patch.

In general, people who are disappointed tend to be more vocal than people who are generally content or happy, so you'll often see topics on the negative side of things since they're expressing their concerns, whereas people who are content are more likely to be in-game doing the stuff they like or just not commenting.

As far as my own opinion, Everything they've implemented so far into 5.1 has been quite wonderful!

#.1 is a pretty important patch. I look back to when 4.1 launched and pretty much ran through everything I wanted to fairly quickly. For 5.1 I still have stuff I need to keep running for loot like the Nier raid and even then that's also spending my entire day going through MSQ and beast tribes.

We still have the 5.1# patches which will add in more like Onsal, Hildy, and the Relic Weapons so I'm excited to see what else it'll bring.

I'm honestly in good faith saying MSQ has been getting really juicy and the ending for 5.1 makes me want 5.2 ASAP. Something I can really say over 4.1's ending.

This whole patch was a major blast. Best 24 man, I love politics so the MSQ was my jam, heck yes quick gathering and I'm going to have to level NIN because I ignored the entire job because I didn't like the old one.

I'm happy they buffed DNC... while having 'group utility' is fine and dandy for those who love grouping, some of us prefer to play solo and maining an extremely fun class that does the least amount of damage isn't fair to us. I've heard a lot of people unhappy with the new 'voices' that were added... I'm thankful my Hyur male voice wasn't too greatly changed... just a minor 'grunt' was added, otherwise everything seems pretty much the same voice wise. I'm also happy they added a difficulty option for solo instanced battles because some of them are extremely difficult if you are trying them 'at level' or don't have the current gear.
