NayaiDeaure: I love Maps, but like a 1 in 10 Chance to get an 'EX' Map, but with guaranteed 'High Rewards, oh id love it.

selectioncrescimento: When they say they changed the rewards of the treasure maps, they mean new drops like glamour, mount, minion, etc. and the older ones become easier to get.

its not a new system or anything, this happens every patch lol

ChimneyChungus: Why is he wearing a hat? How can he keep shining up there when he has a hat?

tylerwintrow4372: The Phantom Village teleport is a small victory. Felt like when they added the ability to teleport outside the gobbie town in Heavensward to drav highlands from the aetheryte

jasonaguilar4031: "I very much enjoy maps". "Its just they are boring". You crack me up man!

StriderIK: Story is getting so good

Elyndyr: Still looks like the same old FFXIV, they really should try getting outside their shell and innovate

chrislangton4662: All late game content needs to be harder and give ACTUAL rewards

Zasurein: Letting people skip the MSQ is the worst thing that could happen to this game. I know hes only here for raiding and is out of touch with the playerbase, but to the vast majority of people playing MSQ is basically the game. The game just isn't built around endgame and most skippers just end up quitting. I don't want idiots who dont know the story and no investment in the game piling in.

ricardo5910: Did they kill the writter responsible for wuk lamat with a firing squad? I will only believe the story is good when that happens

Rickus316: They need to add “pet” to Alpha and Omega when you see them in the world

VioletShinobi: The story hasn't been getting good. It's returned to minimum acceptable quality... Imo it's still pretty meh compared to what it could be... But at least it's not hot dog water like it was.

Zoltri: On the topic of maps, instead of just harder content, I personally wish they leaned more casual and just realized.. the PvE is totally pointless in them so instead focus on minigames.

Like, I dont know anyone who goes into a map and is excited by the idea of killing waves of goobers that dont do anything.

The thing that's fun about maps is picking a Left or Right door, High/Low, etc, and trying to make it to the end. The encounters are not even on that radar, it's the minigames which determine your progression, and I wish there was more focus on that.

But beyond that, Make it a GROUP event. Currently maps exist in imo the stupidest state where the map owner makes all the choices and everyone else stands around and watches, just hitting monsters until it ends. It's frankly fucking awful design.

Encourage group wide participation, make fun, social based mini games that are way more frequent.

Imo the current version of maps is like, 10% of that systems potential. They could do "So" much more to make that system a core pillar of what FF provides rather then having it relegated as a shitty after thought and brain dead slop content.

rpgfel3371: Take the cap off, shine bright like a diamond m’lord

Enderlinkpawnu: for the V&C menu, I actually think it's separate because it's the menu you select your variant actions from, not because the lore entries are there. So I would do this.

- move the menu to change your variant actions into the "Actions and Traits" tab. Maybe give it it's own tab in there, or have it sorted under the "Duties" subcategory; Similar to how they have it for the phantom actions.

- Move the variants and criterions into the Duty Finder

- Move the lore entries into Collections.

There, problem solved! We used pre-existing game infrastructure to remove a pointless menu from the game.

Kude1707: The current maps are great with just 2 people, you actually have to do work xD

MsPysoul: FFXIV: Does nothing

Baldy: BEST FUCKING PATCH

chocobro3198: Yup, still not coming back. xD

luna_theraider: Honestly love the Trust thing because of the sheer amount of times Y’shtola has killed me in a god damn boss fight with 25% left and then I have to restart the fight from the beginning is enraging. Mostly doing the trusts to get gear to desynth or get rare drops without disturbing others. Sure there is unsync but sometimes. I feel masochistic and wish to suffer through the whole damn dungeon.

Magflyer: I don't mind the maps having an increased difficulty, but the rewards should benefit everyone and not rng. But we all know it'll be another materia reward system.

KempiAsura: Dark Souls moan

venheartzeil3070: Extreme Maps would be awesome

Vendetta444: The map changes usually mean there is 1-2 new items added to the newest map while the rarest drops of the portals gets added to the lower map. Meaning the solo maps actually have a decent lootpool by the end of an expansion.
