What would it take for you to like field content it you don’t currently like it?

[FenyxRising]

The only reason I did field content is because of:

Duels
DR and DRS
BA
CLL and Dalriada
Relics
Fun action system (especially pre-nerf ShB Blood Rage WAR)

And these are fun enough that I actually got all ShB relics.

If they want to make field content better they need to make the open world contain more than boring zergfest FATEs (or even worse, just mobs), it's really that simple.

Come to think of it modern FF14 combat is so bad and so boring and so braindead the next field content open world should not use FF14 combat, for example Ocean Exploration with ship combat. So the open world is ship combat but then the islands contain large-scale raids using the usual FF14 combat.
