Is there going to be only one dungeon per patch now?
Is there going to be only one dungeon per patch now?
Yes, they said there is only going to be one dungeon in each patch now, I think it was in a live letter or maybe an interview but yes it was some time during 5.2 they said we will get one dungeon per patch moving forward, personally I wished we got at least two but it's one from now on.
Yes they said its cause too many dungeons and that theyd rather work on different kind of content. like BA 2 ozma strikes back
Thx guys for the update sad it’s going to be that way but hopefully it’s worth it in the end
It won't be. We'll be getting even less as time goes on, pretty soon 1 dungeon only ever other major patch. Then eventually no new dungeons outside of new expansion fare.It's been trending this way since early Heavensward

Do we know what "other content" they're trying to focus on?
What is this other stuff I should be getting excited for?
In Stormblood it was mainly Eureka that we got as a replacement for the one lost dungeon every other patch.
In Shadowbringers its gonna be relic-related content again, namely the Bozja Citadel that we should be getting with 5.3.
In addition to more fleshed out relic-content (lets face it: ARR and HW only made us re-run content that was long dead), I'd imagine its a lot of "smaller" things - Trust-NPCs for every Shadowbringers-dungeon, gathering/crafting/Diadem rework, ARR rework, Varis as some kind of "bonus Ex-trial", new PvP-maps and modi...
...not all of that is content you, personally, will be getting excited about - just how dungeons arent content everyone is getting excited about. If you cant get excited about anything but dungeons, you can always vote with your wallet and leave.
So far it has not been worth it. But it’s inlt 5.2 hopefully 5.3+ will prove fruitful
Ah, maybe I should have used the word "could" instead. Like, what are they working on that I could be getting excited for.
Thanks for the answer.
All I knew was that we also weren't getting a deep dungeon this expansion so I didn't know what the devs were focusing on instead.
Sorry if I came off rude there!Ah, maybe I should have used the word "could" instead. Like, what are they working on that I could be getting excited for.

In general it seems - from all that they've told us - that they want to try more new, fresh types of content and dungeons arent excatly that... and while PotD was certainly fresh, new content a third iteration would just be more of the same again.
While I agree that we're certainly waiting longer for some "big" new content, I can see how they started with some smaller additions - like Ishgard, Trusts and new PvP. Non of that is a direct replacement for dungeons in the sense that someone who likes dungeons will get content they'll surely like (...maybe Trusts?), but I often feel like those things are so easly overlooked by people who only focus on dungeons...
