My happiest time in the game was during Stormblood, just casually logging in and working on my Eureka relic. Made some good friends and communities through that. (Isnt that what MMOs are supposed to be about?) Just logging in to do the same roulettes day after day and grinding tomes isnt the same at all, no matter how many weapons you want to do.
As cool is Eureka was my main gripe with it (aside from the insane grind that it was) is that it didn't let me be in que for roulettes while inside. This step working this way basically lets people "casually log in and work on their relics" without being confined to a specific exploratory zone. You don't have to do roulettes if you don't want to. There are other options for getting tomestones. This relic step doesn't lock you out of the rest of the game and I really enjoy that. Now if people wanted more pieces to this step that's a somewhat fair critique/request, but I personally really like that it is so open. Especially considering you have to do all of Hildibrand just to get access.
