Old same (events) story

[Emet]

I would like to know if I'm the only one with this opinion.

Why SE keeps doing these lvl 15 events? Sure, I know that it is for new players to also enjoy them, but let's be honest, I'm not saying that everyone does that, but a big part of the new players drop the game before finishing ARR, so they won't even get past lvl 50, while the marjority of the player base are players who have been sticking around for years...

So my question is: why do they keep doing low level and so uninteractive events for people who won't even play the game instead of doing something for people who ACTUALLY play the game.
Please just use the new areas, we have so much potential, imagine how cool events in Solution 9 would be.

SE complained on how the new areas goes desert quickly, and that's a fact cause nowdays there's barely 3 people in Tuliyollal, and this is only 3 months on a new expansion. Yeah it is a nice feeling to have the starting cities crowded, but why even bother with new cities if they get useless after finishing the msq? They're not even trying on making them more attractive. At least give us a reason to go back to them, give us higher level events in different areas!

Maybe because a lot of those new players (not to mention the low level alts of current players) do stick around instead of quitting so SE doesn't want them to be left out?

I agree with you on one point. It would be nice if they would bring back the old interactive content they used to have. The Haukke manor mini-games were a lot of fun and it's puzzling why they dropped them in favor of making the additional event rewards a gil purchase.

I've also never seen SE express concerns about low use of current expansion zones. That's always been a complaint coming from players. A hunt train moving through a zone should be enough explanation for why they don't put more end game content in them. It doesn't matter what the game servers are capable of handling when the average player doesn't have client that can handle it.

If new cities aren't attractive, why on earth would you want an event held there?

On a recent interview, Yoship said something about wanting to make new cities more popular, but they don't want to hurt the popularity of the first three city states, cause of the feeling that they cause on new players, by having a city full of people right at the begining.

None of this would be a problem if you could New Game Plus older seasonal events including the ones you didn't have a chance to do when they happened.

They could hold a seasonal event in Kugane, and anyone who wasn't able to be there when it came around could always just do it later on instead.
