Yoshi-P lied

[Denji]

man just give me an unranked mode in pvp so i can hang with buddies sometimes or allow us to queue together for frontline in parties larger than 4 and then just split us afterward if you're worried about it (which would be cool anyway because then you could actually, y'know, fight your buddies without it being staged in the duel arena.)

crystaline conflict could've been cool but no, their obsession with keeping things fair blinded them to the idea that they could just have ranked or unranked.

the tomestone grind for some relic stuff is also just... boring and incredibly, incredibly easy. i did the new manderville quest so fast it was just like... is that it?

1 decade later ;

"You are going to pay 15 usd monthly to farm Crystal Tower Raid for the new relic and you gonna like it or not.

imagine if new content actually made you go play new content instead of forcing us back into old content because people cant admit a mmo with a forced single player story is never going to work longterm

Gave me stuff to do. But I'm also not upset they didn't add a new FATE grind or "Do E*N 60 times" or w/e as a relic step.

I think you sum it to harshly up alot of this content people actually do like, except for those on the forum that just need to complain on anything they don't like themself and think the game only should be adding things that they like.

Sorry no sympathy here... as it is not all like Eureka and Pagos and so on and so forth..... not all like to do savage or extreme trials.... and just doing roulettes for the rewards and nothing more to it.

I think you judge it too harsh especially on the relic line, and for a good reason for that, previous recent relics was also EASY to get in the first few steps, deal with it or take a break for a while, love that there is this many options in game and it not just yay next raid..

If you need a challenge do the Coils on Minimum iLevel or something if you feel bored or something.

This last patch was huge:
1. Small Relic Step
2. Small Beast Tribe
3. Big New Deep Dungeon

Relic would be a big one in a step or two.

If neither of it cater to your game needs then take a break or something and or work on other things, or do Ultimates?

Basically recicled content from 10 years ago.

Beasts tribes exists since ARR, nothing new.
Relic weapon, cool all the hard work and tedious design so my character deals 1%more damage in dungeons that mostly lowers my gear level

Let's face it. Basically no one will be actively trying for this stuff.

I know people who were already at 10k so at least they got something to do

[IckeDerTyp]

And people defended the 2 same-y dungeons they started pushing out every other patch in SHBs.

Im not saying that I told you but I did tell you~

Tho I did enjoy the new Alliance Raids alot, so not all is bad.

It used to be it'd take me at least a solid day or two to finish all the content offered by a patch (including story) at minimum, potentially weeks if there was relic content added. But for 6.X? I'm usually finished with the entire patch in 1-4 hours and then I'm bored again and end up quitting until the next one. I know Yoshi has also said to take breaks and play other games and I do this VERY liberally, but it really isn't fun to come back to the game for a content patch expecting to have fun and I'm done with all I care to do after just a handful of hours.

You are allowed to take breaks but do not cancel subscription ever.

There doesn’t seem to be any sort of open debate anymore it’s either white knight or constant moaning and complaining there is no rhyme or reason to it. People have offered insight into say 16 not really affecting much in development… people are like nah it’s clearly affected it with no source to back the claim. People say content wise it’s been more varied actually at this point and they have revamped and done a lot yet will say no it’s been abandoned for 16.

Story is subjective but I’ve gone into this knowing it would have been a challenge to start again basically so are trying to prologue anew arc and people think it must go from big event to big event. I think it’s hard to say where it’s going yet till 6.4 and if that’s a drop then ok it makes me question some direction.

I really want them to produce a spreadsheet of resource allowance and allocation to particular teams etc from stormblood to shadowbringers and ShB to EW. Granted even if it gave big insight to where resource allocation is going people will still moan or doom and gloom. Game gets more content then most mmos… must be the end I guess.
