Live Letter LXXXVI 86 Discussion Thread

My subscription expires in 5 days and I have nobody left to play with anymore. I thought the new content would be exciting! Something to bring my friends back! But I feel really disappointed and I'm not sure I'll be back for anymore content this expansion. A lot of what was discussed doesn't seem like "Original" content? It's already been done before and I'm not excited for what the future holds.

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'm pretty excited for the occult crescent personally, it definitely seems to be combining the best aspects of both Eureka and Bozja

From what I remember it seems like there is even a version of Eureka's bunny farm, but with magic pots instead

but yeah those BLM changes are kind of an odd choice, no clue where they pulled that feedback from

Well yeah I went from pretty hype to realising what changes happened to black mage and became depressed. It's hard to get excited for the future of the game when this has happened to so many jobs, PLD, DRG, AST just to name a few of recent years, theirs actually no job that really stands out to me anymore as "difficult to master" which frankly isn't great.

As much as I'm looking forward to Occult crescent its hard to get hyped for something 2 months away from 7.2 when we should be already in 7.2 likely getting Occult by now.

I feel like ruining a job i enjoyed (for all we know with this balance to permanently) vs having a new content that is interesting and fun isn't a great trade, cuz jobs are the core to the actual gameplay being fun in the first place.

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?

without fun jobs none of the content is fun

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

Boy and 8.0 is when jobs are suppose to have identity......i'll believe it when I see it at this point.

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.

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.
