Gonna start off by saying that other peoples mental health is absolutely none of your business, nor is it your business to comment on it. I've seen some gross takes on this forum lately but this is some really gross stuff.
---------------

As far as the topic at hand, Variant & Criterion are fun and I like how they were designed. Do we need more rewards to keep the content going? Yes. No one outside of brand new people & those who are farming it for the glam/to sell will run it after a couple weeks. I also would not be shocked if they tie Variant to the new relic weapon, which I mean....at least it's not Crystal Tower spam (gopefully). I look forward to seeing what they do with it in the future but it absolutely need more rewards (other than materia & glam) to push forward from here and keep future floors viable.

Second, as far as Endwalker vs. Shadowbringers, it should be pretty obvious the game has taken a dip in terms of being bug proofed/QA. I joined FF in 5.2 and I have 0 memory of any of their patches being as buggy or broken as Endwalkers have been. I can understand that maybe the flood of new people before Endwalker launched would cause some problems (cause it was unexpected, I don't think anyone knew what happened at Blizz was going to happen outside of it) so I can't fault them for the issues the launch of Endwalker faced. However, we're almost in 6.3, knowing they have a massive audience should be over now and they should have some sort of idea of how to launch patches smoothly, just like before in Shadowbringers. I really fail to see why some are just not acknowledging that they used to put out patches without a problem and now we're getting bugs each time.

Third, as far as this forum is concerned, yes it's a cesspit sometimes..I don't think anyone here would deny that either. However, as was stated before, the forum isn't a social media website like Twitter or Reddit. If you want endlessly fluffy content, direct your attention there. The forum is (even though it's hardly maintained as it used to be) a line to the devs in a way social media sites are not. Housing lottery idea? Came from here. I still remember that thread as an example. Yeah, people here are extremely critical of the game sometimes but we also have to be to see change happen since no one else is doing it. If you want people to endlessly praise the game, you don't want to be on here. We do give praise where it is due, don't get me wrong, but this isn't a place for 100% positivity and niceness.
