The only ONE thing I liked about Eureka, was The Baldesion Arsenal.
I think that is the only REAL Raid ever put into FFXIV, and Im bummed we didnt get one on the same level in Bozja.
Even though Castrum Lacus Litore, Delubrum Reginae, & Dalriada were all pretty good.
Eureka and Bozja aren't really the same though, other than both falling under the exploratory mission tag. In Eureka you either were grinding trash mobs off in some corner for farming or NM spawning reasons, or you sat afk in town between nm pops. Eventually you could add bunny fates to this but that isn't exactly the most compelling content. Meanwhile in bozja there were always fates you could be doing and the boss fates were reasonably fun and more involved than most of the Eureka nms. And ce's were much, much better than that.

Also nevermind how dogshit everything about Eureka was back when it was current content. A person doing Eureka now/post shb would have no idea how awful it was.

So fundamentally, Eureka's gameplay loop was inherently boring to me and bozja's was not. I have a lot of patience for fate grinding and 0 patience for random trash mob farming (between my time spent in EQ1 and FF11 I have literally 1000's of hours spent doing that and I never again wish to return).

I have no comment on BA, never did it because it was such a pain in the ass to get into back when this shit was current. It's on my bucket list of things to eventually do just because character power level in full BA gear is so high and that has some charm to it. But then on the other hand, I could only use it do more Eureka and no thanks. I like bozja and I still can't be assed to do DR savage or max out the merit points.
