Just get rid of ranked

[Towa-Musa]

Savage is a core PVE experience with Ultimate being an extension of those, I wouldn't consider cutting resources from these.

Criterion it is too early for me to tell, but so far it is too little for me to care. Deep dungeon though... can't say I am a fan of Eureka Orthos. We essentially gave up a largescale raid zone akin to Bozja in favour of Deep Dungeon, Criterion and relics tied entirely to Tomestones. So far it is the least engaging expansion if you aren't into Island Sanctuary for instance.

PvP is arguably my only saving grace this expansion, god bless 6.1 PvP. I usually believe, that allocating dev resources to improving PvP would not take away from PvE and is simply on a different budget, but I am struggling to uphold that belief.

Cutting resources 100%? no. shifting SOME... yeah i can get behind that but tbf the New savage dungeon (lets just call it what it is) is easily a miss for me, i wish they would put more resources behind what was already made at the time.
More bozja would be cool af

An exploration zone or hell a Lv90 continuation of Bozja content (would be a crazy but welcome idea) would have done a lot for engagement. In fact a continuation of such a subsystem would be bloody amazing, all the gear and tools you collected serving extra purpose in the future would have me very happy.

Would also justify the final "to be continued" screen after Zadnor story.

Man I miss Bozja, went over my resources channel and saw all the good stuff.

Yeah, what WAS with that 'To be continued' thing at the end? like wtf why did they not do anything with that?!

I mean story with Gabranth and our dear resistance leader "not Lady Ashe" that Fran so happily was part of is still out there - a Return to Ivalice 2 electric boogaloo is very much an option and I am always a friend of more Ivalice content.

Oh man, it just shows how people's tastes differ. Bozja and Eureka were such a grinding chore for me.

My comment was probably kinda excessive, I think one of the good things about this game is the wide variety of content, yet it's kinda painful when they have to decide between if they have X or Y for the expansion.

Ideally they would have separate teams for each larger part of content so they could provide a bit of everything consistently, but that's probably not going to happen.

Personally I would love the game to have more stuff like PvP and Mahjong to have something I can consistently enjoy when there's lull in other content, kind of evergreen stuff that is less one and done.

Imagine if they ever went back and actually reworked Chocobo racing into much more responsive and enjoyable game mode? Expanded Triple Triad to make it less "mini"game? Made cooperative stuff to do on Islands? And so on.

Then again unless they are heavily reworking the engine and codebase, they will be limited by people who have experience with it along with the major delay in responsiveness. Of course there's also the matter of how much resources SQEX is willing to spend in XIV instead of milking it to fund other games.

Theres not much of a point to ranked ngl but thats okay, if people wanna play the lotto i say let em.
In that same token, id like to see dev resources be shifted tword something thats good for everybody.
Maybe new modes and rewards ect.

I already get the feeling that the developers are greedy for rewards. Well, if they made remakes of the old PvP reward sets, people would be happy. Or... Here somewhere they expressed an idea, I don’t remember who expressed it, about accumulative tokens for improving reward weapons, starting from bronze and above. And this idea sounds very good. Because if someone decides to play loto and makes significant efforts, then the reward should be better, otherwise there is simply no point. Other than running from some players to another in the hope that the other mode will be more dynamic and fun.

Fun needs to be more of a focus rather then whatever it is they're doing now imo lol
Rewards are great yes but the way they have it right now needs work.

1. i have played with enough people to know that casual and ranked are literally the same thing, you REALLY don't need a warmup for something that is literally 10% you and 90% rng based
