It is just too hard to be excited when that is 2 months out, and they are also still committing to dumbing down every job until they are all the same. Have they not understood people do not want this?

At this phase I'm confident they are cherrypicking some forum comments with 2 likes from years ago. Or this is just what the DEVS want to do for their own fun / THINK this is what will lure new players in.

It’s amazing that occult crescent genuinely looks like the Best content they have ever created and yet nobody cares because everyone is spending more time going “what the actual f…… Is that BLM change”

I have been the most hype for Occult Crescent since I first saw it in Fan Fest! But I will not get hyped or talk about something that I will only get in 2 months. 1. My hype for it will die down with time AND 2. I might get my hopes waaay too high for what will be delivered, in so doing I will destroy my enjoyment of it. Ask me again about Occult Crescent in 1 week before it's release.
BLM changes will come in 7.2 on the 25th, if I remember correctly.

without fun jobs none of the content is fun

visuals can carry jobs only for a short time before they get boring

Occult Cresent is in patch 7.25 which will release May 27th.

It's certainly a choice to wait 11 months from launch to add a form of long term content to the game. Could at least have switched up Cosmis and Occult times IMO.

I watched it specifically for any mention of the graphics update. There was none and I feel defeated. I'm tired. Couldn't they at least say if they're still working on it or not? If they couldn't even say that much while the chat was asking for it, it truly feels like a different set of developers than I remembered.

I saw the LL and was like eh, I can't care less anymore tbh I've mostly just been playing other games like DW origins (what a banger).

Saw the LL and just kinda laughed as I don't wanna do the story and the rest of the content that interested me aren't even fully fleshed out. I'm probably gonna try the new raids and then my sub runs out after that so I won't be doing anymore XIVing until at least after summer, I feel bad for people who couldn't raid or didn't want to as they have even less to wait for which is insane to me.

Has there been any translation of Occult Crescent Time Mage's passive and active abilities? I'd a quick look online but couldn't find anything. Wondering if a passive might be the cause of observed lower cast times for black mage in OC.

I don't think we have much more than that, but it might give some idea of what to expect.

Thanks for the link. Unfortunately not much info there but sure we won't have to wait long to find out the truth of the matter.
