He says exactly that.quote:Yeah definitely. With being able to allocate development resources with the shift in our pattern for releasing dungeon content, where we have our even number of patches to have two dungeons, and our odd patches to have just one, we did alleviate [amount of work] by not having to make that extra dungeon.

We already knew that Eureka's development is why dungeon development was reduced way back when we first learned those things would be happening. I guess if your opinion on that is "the game is bad and dying" then ok, but that's certainly not what Yoshi-P is saying like you made it sound.

I liked the part where he said Eureka takes player skill. Regardless of how much you enjoy that content the idea of it being genuinely difficult content in any way beyond numbers is absurd.

The game is neither bad nor dying, but Eureka is very bad and makes the rest of the game worse by its existence. I have seen people argue that that is not the case, but as we can see from this interview, it is.

The only thing that I genuinely dislike and/or find kinda headscratchy about eureka is that, unlike previous relic grinds, Eureka not only doesn't populate roulettes, it actively depopulates them. Everything else about it is neutral to fine and I often lol (laugh aloud) at the Eureka handwringing that takes place in this, very, thread.

I'm not fond of Eureka at all but I don't begrudge its existence? There's definitely a market for people with FFXI stockholm syndrome after all.  But yeah, it's really kind of counterproductive to keeping queues populated in a way the previous relic grinds weren't.

Very few of the relic or anima steps did much for queues. Atma, unid, and books did nothing for no one. Light you could make an argument for, but it was far easier to grind out in PF

I think dropping a dungeon here and there to work on some side content was a good idea, and I don't think Eureka is unsalvagable. I'm very interested to see if they next part of it makes any positive changes or if it's just more of the same.

I got more fun out of Eureka than any given level 60 dungeon, if losing a few Hullbreaker HMs is the price we pay for experimentation I'm ok with a few less than stellar experiments.

Finally beat the main quest line for Stormblood a year after buying it. It was real fun. Lyse is awesome, Zenos' voice actor went really over the top but it was still fun. The twins continue to improve. Scenery and map traversal is so much better than Heavensward. A lot of good story beats, especially in the side quest chains. 9/10 would highly recommend.

People complain about getting less dungeons but seriously though? If anything, this game has too many dungeons that we don't get enough time with.

So you know the story quest "warriors welcome" where you kill a bunch of monsters in a hunting contest? turns out its possible for someone to steal your kills and you dont get credit, so a monk followed me around and stole them when I was doing the quest.

Pretty sure it'd be exactly the same after the first clear of each. Since dungeons are extremely stock standard poo poo now in how they're designed.

I think 2 dungeons a patch is the sweet spot for me. And I enjoy dungeons because outside of actual serious raiding, it's where it's easiest to see how player skill can impact things. It's there in trials and normal raids but I feel that those still take too long to grind through HP bars to really feel as good as dungeons.

I'm seeing a lot of complaining about the level 60 dungeons, but I will take ARF all day over the level 50 dungeons, because gently caress Level 50.

Good with the current dungeon cadence as well. 50/60 DR reminds me how many mechanics I've forgotten, and that number only grows with each expansion. Not thrilled with the allocation to Eureka, but there's plenty to occupy me otherwise.

Amdapor Keep and Wanderer's Palace are great to get in roulettes (mainly because you can pull entire hallways and breeze through them in like 12 minutes). The trick is to just never unlock any of the lovely ones when you hit 50 so that you can never get them as roulettes.

I like most of the 50 dungeons and 60 dungeons and would trade Eureka away for more dungeons immediately. I would also do the same with potd and diadem. Basically if the mode has loot boxes, I want it annihilated.

Level 50 just feels worthless, whereas 60 and above is all good.
