    I don't mind it. Least not conceptually. In practice this thing is clearly weighted to pick certain content. You can't expect me to believe it picks Crystal Tower with an 80% rate in Aether of all places. But I can choose to not do roulettes I don't wanna do, too. So ultimately it's just a decent way to churn out like 50k gil per bonus.

    Yes, I like to do nraid, trials, and mentor rous before checking my subs and logging off for a few hours. After finishing my DT alt job relics, I just started working on clearing PT.

    i do normal raid and trial roulette almost daily. sometimes they are fun (most important critarium for that though is having people who mess up a lot). i dont do the others anymore

    Expert during raid tiers. The rest no, unless there's a relic step involved. Syncing kinda sucks the fun out of it for me, else I'd be doing them routinely to help out players.

    I'm not doing it for few years already because rewards are just not enough.
    1) Regular duty roulette/ 50/60/70etc roulette: exp bonus is not enough to justify running it over just highest level dungeon without risk of being stuck in one of boring ARR dungeons
    2) Raid and trial roulette: simply dead because amount of exp you're getting is just miserable and most of the times you'll spend ~10 minutes. Much more efficient to register highest level dungeon instead.
    3) Alliance roulette: not enough exp again. Can be somewhat justified if you get LOTA/Syrcus, but anything else and exp per time is just abysmal.
    4) Expert roulette: I can simply go do the hunt train in less time than it takes to queue and do expert roulette and get 3x weekly tomes. Why would I EVER step into expert roulette considering this?
    5) Other roulettes, such as MSQ or Guildhests: I don't even know why would anyone run them at all.

    I'd rather do Crystal Tower than Mhach or Ivalice synced again, that's for sure. Only time I step into those two anymore is if someone puts up a unsync run because they're looking for a quick clear for the story or farming minions/music/cards. Likewise, I have no real desire to run through Nier despite unlocking it, and I likely won't touch the Endwalker or Dawntrail alliance raids either, not even unsync, because the power difference to cut through them cleanly unsync just isn't there once you're doing 90/100 content.

    It's why I'm not surprised that Crystal Tower is the only thing that pops up so often in alliance raid roulette, because a lot of people seem to forget that not everyone finds alliance raids fun, and if not for CT being mandatory, a lot of people would skip that too. It's also why any time someone suggests making all alliance raids be mandatory for MSQ progress I facepalm hard, because forcing people to do something they hate just makes them not want to play the game to avoid said thing. If I was forced to do Nier to escape Shadowbringers (which was already a miserable expansion to play through in general) I would just be stuck in Shadowbringers forever because I don't even want to do it unsync. I hear its a slog due to the massive HP pools, the countless ways one alliance can screw over another, and just bizarre mechanics being thrown at you altogether. On top of that, I've never played Nier its self (nor do I want to), so whatever spectacle or fanservice they're going for is completely lost on me. Nothing about it sounds fun, it would just be an undesired chore and guess what, it would be even MORE of a reason to avoid its associated roulette because its a guaranteed 30 minute penalty if it popped up (same as Mhach and Ivalice turned into after awhile).

    Again, you would think people would stop and consider WHY a lot of players actively avoid unlocking certain dungeons/trials/raids instead of thinking that forcing people into doing them would somehow fix everything, when it more than likely would have the exact opposite effect by making people dodge doing roulettes the moment they "ruin" one with an undesired unlock. And no, the threat of "well I guess they just don't get roulette rewards then!" isn't the arm-twister they think it is if this very topic is anything to go by with people openly admitting they avoid during certain, or even ALL roulettes because clearly the rewards stopped being worth it.

    It might be time for a break, tho I see ppl who are clearly upset at SE and FFXIV but refuse to quit either way, so they remain posting complaints on forums.

    Yes, I enjoy doing my daily roulettes. If i don't feel it one day, I just don't do them. Or only do certain ones. I usually do them all.

    I don't think pushing CT into MSQ would work. One requires 4. One requires 24. I can't see where CT would ever pop.
