the normal content is too easy

[Skyborne]

Do you expect one game to give you that?

For some people, yes. :^)

I've savage raided since Gordias and did ults for a bit, and I do dabble in other parts of the game. Fishing, grinding FATEs (I think the bicolor gem shop was a step in the right direction even if the FATEs themselves are not the most engaging) Eureka, and yes, running around housing districts when I'm bored because I like seeing the creativity of players. Does not change the fact it's depressing and empty outside of Limsa, unless you are right at the release of a patch...

And that's beside the OP's post, which is the idea that the average battle content itself is not engaging enough to want to partake in.
