One dungeon per patch!?

[BroFists]

First they came for the third dungeon, and I did not speak out—because I wanted more Zodiac relics.

Then they came for the second dungeon, and I did not speak out— because I wanted more Eureka.

Then they came for the other second dungeon, and I did not speak out—because I wanted more Hrothgar relics.

Then they came for the first dungeon—and there was no more dungeons and you do MSQ through Eureka.

Update: Yoshi P confirmed they're deleting a dungeon from now on from every other patch to make more content. Coincidentally they announced the release of umbrellas, gathering beast tribes. Coincidence?

Then they came for the MSQ--and there was no more Eureka and we just dance in Limsa all day.

It was at that moment that we became what we must.


We became...THE SIMS OF DARKNESS!

I'm still waiting to see what benefit there was in deleting the second dungeon in every other patch....

I don't have high hopes we'll get anything for now only getting one per patch. And I expect expert roulette will be even more of a boring slog to do than it was before.

Possibly all the new contents in Stormblood (Ultimate, Baldesion Arsenal, etc.).

Maybe.... I abandoned Eureka early on, so I can't speak to the arsenal as content... but couldn't that be considered that we lost 4 dungeons so that they could make 1?

And 2 Ultimates and maybe other things as well, like Masked Carnival.

Yay, ultimates, that content who all people can access easily.

In SB, you 'lost' three dungeons. (4.1, 4.3 and 4.5 only having one dungeon as opposed to the 2 per patch in HW.)

You 'gained' the Arsenal, two Ultimate fights, and four zones for Eureka. With quests, several Notorius Monster fights per zones, and the logos system in the later two zones.

If you don't think it's worth it fair enough, but Eureka had a lot of casually available content. It's just debatable if that was good content.

Ultimate fights.... I have a split mind set on. I didn't play them and had no desire to do so despite doing savage raids. Though there's the argument that why eliminate content for all players to create content for very few players that I do think is worth exploring (I have no solid opinion on this)

Eureka, definitely not worth it. It was boring, grinding content. It seems the only people clamoring for more content to just fight open world enemies were people who came from old MMOs where that's all you do.

Either way, I felt last expansion that with fewer dungeons, I got burned out on the game faster. I was still doing the old thing of running roulettes to get tomestones, and when it was a lot of the same over and over rather than having even more than one dungeon helped keep the burn out from happening as fast.
