I came in around like 3.2 and have bad memory. It used to be 2 dungeons every patch, no? In exdr pairs.

They'll actually start deleting old dungeons at that point.

I don't know why people keep trying to float the idea that Zenos is Yda. It's a super dumb theory.

How do we know Zenos isn't a next-level Magitek armor piloted by a lalafell (Papalymo)? WE DON'T, SO I COULD BE RIGHT.

it's fine by me if they decide to go 1 dungeon only on odd patches if that odd dungeon is good.

if that one dungeon is a Neverreap... welp

It'll probably happen.

Plus side, that one dungeon might also be Fractal/Antitower/Sohr Kai!

The other part of it was that in place of the second dungeon the odd patches will have "other content", so if going light on dungeons for a patch is what they need to do to make Eureka not another Diadem then okay fine by me. Gonna withhold judgement.

I haven't done Neverreap in forever, someone remind me what was so bad about it. All I remember is it let you carry those totems with you if you picked one up before the second boss fight, which was pretty cool.

They fixed that bug so it's one redeeming feature was removed. Besides that, all 3 bosses have tedious invulnerable phases. The final boss has way more hp than it should (back when 180 was the max ilvl but nobody had it that final boss used to consistently take over 5 minutes to kill). The trash to the first boss is incredibly tedious as a melee dps due to all the Sordes spamming their AE. Also if you get a new tank they won't know where to stand to avoid tornados and might ignore the markers you put down. Trash to the 2nd boss has bees so you've got to deal with final sting which isn't a problem now but it was. Both the 2nd and 3rd boss will turn to cast horseshit and ruin my trick attack or other positionals and it is the worst.

It was visually boring for a dungeon made of floating islands, the bosses sucked, and it felt insanely long when it first came out and hasn't gotten much shorter over time. It might be better now, but it was a nightmare every time I got it back then, especially when Fractal felt comparably brisk and was at least more interesting.

Except I need to get that last GC rank
And I suppose I should finish getting a full i270 set, but you lose so much crit with the Aug Shire head piece

Every single boss in Neverreap was a pain in the rear end as a BLM. Compare this to Fractal where the only thing that would force you to stop casting was Disorienting Groan on the Minotaur.

I, too, look forward to the despair of seeing the 'content' in an odd patch is akin to Chocobo Racing, Lord of Verminion, and Airships.

I main Bard so while I didn't struggle quite that much, I sure loving loved knowing my DoTs were gonna drop off while I ran around searching for a shadow or avoiding an invulnerable boss for a while. So much fun.

From what I remember blitzball felt pretty slow and unresponsive in Final Fantasy X and was already a big grind so I don't see any obstacles to sticking it in an MMO

Also being able to recruit random NPCs like in 10 would be cool

I've had quite a decent amount of fun with Chocobo Racing to be honest.

It's not engaging or whatever and it's mechanically flimsy as gently caress, but it's alright as something to do while watching netflix or whatever. Better than idling in Idyllshire or mooching in Mor Dhona.

TBH Verminion is fine too and I'm glad it exists even if it got strangled in the crib by the lack of any kind of decent matchmaking for it early on.
