FFXIV: Cosmic Exploration / Field Content & More Confirmed For 7.2!

[@Strider_Shinryu]

Important to remember that "7.2" doesn't necessarily mean right at the release of 7.20 but at any point during the patch. It's a good chance that we won't see much of this stuff until 7.25

[@clintonwilcox4690]

Sure, and that's a point they made, too, so they're not hiding the fact it could be 7.25.

@@clintonwilcox4690 Of course. but we all know that as soon as 7.20 comes out and it doesn't have all of this content in it there will be people whining and screaming about how the devs lied to them or delayed things or broke promises or something.

I hope they pushed and have some fun content in 7.2, as someone who has played for 10 years it feels since 7.0 we really are truly not getting enough content to push us to the next patch. The game feels so empty, no one ever seems to be around. 7.1 was just so lackluster, I am hopeful 7.2 fixes it.

[@touma-san91]

I certainly hope so too because I've been thinking past couple months if I should just quit playing entirely or not as there isn't really anything to keep me interested in the game currently besides the hope of them adding something to do.

[@alexp9621]

For me personally, I'm really excited. The content coming in 7.2 is stuff my wife and I have been really hyped for, and even in this lull I am still playing as I've got goals (rn doing a lot of levelling of alt jobs). That being said, for anyone who isn't feeling it, definitely play something else till they bring out something that appeals. I don't think it's ever healthy to keep playing a game when you're not enjoying it, and there are so many games on the market to play :)

[@adventuringthroughgames9576]

"Play something else" doesn't really work for players who have houses and have to worry about the auto demolition timer if they are unsubscribed for too long or can't enter their houses for some other reason. It's partly why I was kind of happy to give up my house when I transferred to another data centre.

@alexp9621 I know that the thing is that Yoshi-P initially said there would be no auto demolition timer for housing in around 2.0 era I believe and then they went back on that in a pretty transparent attempt to keep players hooked to their subscriptions. Good for you if you're still enjoying it, especially with a partner. I do wish the MSQ stuff outside of the dungeons could be done in a party, though.

they said that was in development but it's worth remembering that Yoshi P says a Lot of Shit, if he doesn't give an actual concrete date, assume it's the .4 patch and save yourself the stress. this happened with Island Sanctuary where they essentially announced the date too early and it kept getting pushed back, that's why they're so hush-hush about Cosmic Exploration and everything else.

I have to admit, I have been considering moving on from 14. This.... may be a ways off, but it'll keep me onboard for a while longer. It seems to be the content I actually wanted to begin with. Let's see what they've got.

[@SeedlingNL]

Something I've been wondering about recently.. why haven't they added new gathering jobs, like Hunter and Archeologist? Hunter would allow you to gather skins and meat from mobs, but in more quantities and more involved mechanics than just shoot em dead. Archeologists would delving into the earlier civilisations, like in the overworld but also certain dungeons. Maybe associated with the Sharlayans? Most of the stuff obtained would be collectables, others would be desynthed for crafting materials.

[@SorasShadow1]

i'm unsure what an "Archeologist" gatherer would really do? but a "Hunter" gatherer class is just as easily solved by putting in mob drop information in-game. They've already "solved" a lot of the problem by putting all the mob drop items behind bicolor gems for ShB onward, so the framework is already there to just put everything on bicolor vendors and slap gems onto old FATEs, probably way easier than a proper bestiary.

[@dylanbratton2176]

They need something akin to Hunter. I don't think they need an entirely new job, but it would be nice to have some kind of item that would allow us to farm specific skins or meats from mobs we kill.

[@NotTheWheel]

An archeologist would be nice specially if it was similar in regards of finding hidden lore. Just need some concept of how to mix that in with the rest.

[@reshypoo9447]

WoW's archeology thing was kinda neat, not as a gathering thing, but a chill minigame for a few mounts and minions. Bit like fishing, where it doesn't serve much practical purpose outside of itself. Think adding new gathering or crafting jobs for the sake of it is pointless. Making up a thing, and then making up a need for it. The hunting one also goes against their non-combat nature. Could take skins from 'dead' creature-objects, but if they wanted to make that kind of thing easier to get, better to just up the drop rates - since that's what hunting is, after all.

[@ToastedBread68]

@SeedlingNL Archeology would be cool, but I doubt they'd go the hunter route after all the "everyone's friends now" stuff they've been pushing with the beast tribes. We're all supposed to be big softies with the beasts of eorzea now, so I doubt they'd let us go around skinning them and harvesting their organs.

[@Dyxid]

But will any of it be casual or midcore content? That's the part that's going to determine if people come back and stay or not, of if even more non-hardcore players leave because the 8 month drought turned into a year-long one.

[@anteprs7908]

Feild ops are midcore and sadly no DT is the fuk casuals expantion.

[@Xadaj127]

I'm at least hoping Cosmic and Triangle will give me something to do other than alliance, fate grinds and treasure hunts. I know x.1 patches are usually barren, but since DT's launch it's been particularly hard to find interest in all the content geared towards hardcore players like the Savage, Chaotic and Ultimate raids. That being said, I usually don't like Eureka or Bozja but I never got into them when they were new, so I'm gonna try jumping into Triangle at launch to see if that catches my interest. Maybe I'll pick up Beast Master too, idk.

That does concern me too but I'm hoping they delve into it a bit more in the next Live Letter and show us it's not just a completely isolated solo experience. Be great if there was at least the option to have a friend or two help your progress instead of just being window dressing with the occasional glam or mount attached.

We've been waiting for the field content and now they are releasing it all in one patch during savage again? Either way I do agree we should be respectful of their internal development cycles and hiccups, I guess we can't expect it to all be neatly planned to avoid content drought every time. Still it's a recurring issue.

[@paupascualramirez9979]

Honestly, I'd preffer if they take a bit more time working on the stuff they actually put out rather than on pumping as much content in a single patch as tehy can. Chaotic was kind of a bad move in my opinion because it's not as easy to access as savage or extreme, which kinda already have long waiting time on pf (and the gear removes everything that makes each race unique anyway, they went very wrong there) I would've preffered that content with less players and glamour better thought out. One other thing I worry about is the lack of relic information. Now there is no excuse like in EW. This is not the "end expansion" so you don't need time to "settle your bucket list" and there is no maintenance or upgrades to do on a big scale

[@NotTheWheel]

Whoa cool armor is that the Chaotic armor set?

[@kupomogry9765]

Why not make the world exploration more important? Like finding treasure chests in a cave or something like that. Dawntrail was beautiful in term of design but bro, these new maps always has felt empty since heavensward. You can't deny the particular differences between ARR and HW. ARR has a lot more consistent and living world building than all DLC after.

The problem with downtime on a boss fight is it just artificially extends the amount of time you fight the boss for. It's fun and can be cinematic the first time you fight the boss, but when you're fighting the boss for the 20th time, trying to farm gear, minions, or whatever, it becomes a tedious slog and you just want it to be over.

Level 100 dungeons are now the difficulty of extremes from past expansions and normal raids have elements of savage mechanics compared to previous mechanics. More than 50% of positionals now insta-wipe. Been playing since Heavensward and have never seen so many people quit what is supposed to be a basic level 100 story dungeon. The queues for Expert dailies take twice as long as they used to because fewer people are willing to risk pugging them and messing up. If Square Enix wants to make content more challenging, then do it to the savages and ultimates where those people who want that kind of thing naturally gravitate.

Not only would it make waaaaaay more sense (neon lights should come from solution 9 and the stone partitions should come from same place matching stone items come from; sub loot) but The drop rate is UTTERLY TERRIBLE. Sadly I know many people (myself included) who have put their house decoration on hold because they are so expensive and low in number. Us on Materia cannot leave to go shopping like the voyagers who can come and buy up anything cheap and leave. You are lucky if there are 5 stone partitions on sale on ALL of materia at one time. I have 3 level 100 hunting retainers with item level 710 gear sent on 18 hr level 100 ventures everyday for well over a month. 1 neon light no stone partitions. The drop rate is horrendous. The decision to make it retainer venture loot was awful.

Good it coming, a patch too late for many. If it doesn't land it will be disastrous.

[@sleepfishl]

nah... not really ...every mmo has ups and downs ... look at WoW ... almost a decade of utter BS and kicking player interests with their feet and it's still up and running ... FFXIV is just the same ... one less than stellar expansion doesn't kill the game. The community is just overly dramatic 😊

[@zangetsu6996]

😱😱

[@trinkeslato9598]

@@sleepfishl WoW is the defacto giant of MMO's. FFXIV has had a disastrous expansion (Endwalker) and Dawntrail is looking grim aswell. If you don't raid in this game then you've basically had no content outside of the MSQ for 8-9 months, thats insane

[@sleepfishl]

@trinkeslato9598 Endwalker was fine. Just like dawntrail. theres enough to do.

[@trinkeslato9598]

@@sleepfishl Strangely people don't share the same sentiment as you. Endwalker was a gigantic fumble and Dawntrail is 9 months deep and people are still waiting for content to do. There's fuck all to do if you don't raid. I used the free period of 4 days to experience 7.1 and i still had 2 days left when i had done it

[@Xeroga06]

Hey meoni love the videos you put out for FFXIV cause I been playing it since the summer of 2014. There's only one thing from the arcadion I want to see this patch and that's a fight again Vince mcmahan lmao. I also look forward to the shades triangle and cosmic exploration to see what's that about

[@TheLMBLucas]

I will keep playing but now I feel like we need 8.0 ASAP. Combat system needs a major rework and they need to implement a loot system instead of just a glam system. Every single piece of gear is the same but with higher stats, no bonus, no sets, no customization, and the materia system is boring af. Also, Dawntrail has been shitting so bad on players outside NA/EU/JP

[@DublinOdinson]

Beastmaster, when?

[@FastForward-i4s]

yea.after how island sanctuary turned out to be, im not holding my breath for cosmic exploration

[@tillanous]

thank you for making this video

Raubahn ultimate coming in 2026. Patch 7.1/2

[@The_Good_Captain]

No wonder ffs getting bad, yoshi and team are getting drunk on wine like suburban women.

[@threestars2164]

Sad to see ffxiv reduced to this.

[@whodistoodis]

Dawntrail made me cancel my sub after nearly ten years, but I'll probably grab a month sub for 7.2 from the looks of it. If for no other reason then I love the ridiculousness of Arcadion.

[@unclechen7693]

Let’s do more fates yay?

[@Nodnarb59]

Yeah disagree heavily with your take on Chaotic

[@WolfgangHighwind]

I need the beast master 😭

[@lens_hunter]

Oh good they're finally adding some content into the game. Yippee.

[@NoahNerina]

I'm one of the players who isn't interested on extreme trials, raiding or ultimates. Really hope they add something interesting to the game, because they seem to just focus on that lately. The game is getting really boring and I have no reasons to log in at all.

[@rashash9954]

The question at the end of your video got me thinking and I realized that nothing gets me excited in FFXIV LLTs anymore, its been the same formula for years and we got used to it especially if you're someone who only do Savage and Ultimates like me and looking at how they are trying so hard to make them easier over the years, I don't understand the approach here, we have dungeons that are boring to death, and EX-NM-Chaotic these are already easy and accessible so why are they trying to make savage and ultimate even easier ''We're not making another TOP'', I def want more and more of TOP my style of play is someone who thrives in chaos and difficulty and they are trying to serve everyone except people like me. I love game devs who try their best to satisfy everyone in their game just like how Blizzard started to do in the recent years with WoW, everyone eats good in that game but in FFXIV as a raider we have to do a savage tier for almost a year (with Weekly lockouts...) and in one of the patches they throw an ultimate in between but instead of making them interesting and challenging they choose to go the opposite way which is sad. I really hope they don't give us another savage tier that is cleared in few hours and an ultimate that is cleared in 3/4 days.

[@Prodigy_LZ]

All I have to say to majority of people in the comments, it truly shows yall don't do any research on anything Yoshi P has said throughout the fanfests, or where content release dates or timeframes are mentioned. None of this is new information lmfaoo, he has said all of this at the fanfests. Everyone was hype as hell back then, now everyone wants to act like this shit is a surprise & that he should've been said something sooner? such fake ass fans, good lord....

[@Zakjuh]

it's so silly

[@anteprs7908]

Ppl understand they just dont like bad or lack of content.

[@Saladrex999]

Forray!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@xTyith97]

7.2 might be the biggest patch in a while . Savage raids Cosmic exploration Field content Extreme trial Relics Variant and criterion (possibly?) Balance adjustments/minor reworks (hopefully Picto gets a nerf) Given the community disappointment recently, they really need to hit this on the head, especially with the more casual leaning folk.

[@Yokai_Yuri]

It's like a regular patch of Shadowbringers.

[@anteprs7908]

nobody confirmed relics and variant yet i think. all this content will be great for non casual not much for casualcloses thing is the crafting event but they will be done by midmaxers and leave casual with jackshlt.

[@darrellbruh1335]

So the same boring systematic approach that they've employed for the past 5 years?

[@Zakjuh]

They did say variant/criterion would be in Dawntrail. When? We don't know. If they follow the same cadence as Endwalker, there would be one in 7.25, though. Also start of the new trial series. Curious if it's going to be tied to straight MSQ again, or if we'll get standalone trial series. Hoping for the latter, personally.

[@Zakjuh]

@@Yokai_Yuri No it isn't wtf are you talking about lmao? Shadowbringers didn't have Bozja come out until 7.35, no deep dungeon, no allied tribal quests, no criterion and ishgard restoration didn't come in the same patch as bozja at all there was also a 8 month wait time between shiva and the next content drop You couldn't have made it more clear that you're a tourist if you tried.

[@SoujiMonaru]

I know there's a lot of game for new players and free players, but I feel that there's never anything added to the game for these people. Whenever they add stuff to the game, it's only end game content. Sure, that's where a lot of people are at, but if they never focus on ALL players, then how can they appeal to everyone? I've stopped playing content since I can't pay for sub and if I did I could never play again if I couldn't afford to keep subbing, and the game is way too expensive for my current situation. All said, it's just not appealing to starters or people who just can't afford to play such an expensive endeavour....

[@flower-lovingprincenix6900]

On my knees, begging for more mid core content at this point. All my friends left the game. Dawn trail really is a low point for this game

[@lecrab8090]

10 minute videos about a holiday emote but can't hit 10 minutes on this lmao

[@206Zelda]

I'm going to be busy playing MHWilds, so I'm not psyching myself up for content that could quite possibly be less than how it's being addressed or presented to us. They did that for Dawntrail's debut, after all. We'll see what we get when it gets here.

[@SirJordanLore]

Cosmic what now. . ?

[@aceplatini859]

Don’t care. No one cares anymore, the game is dead. They knew the backlash from FF16, its DLC and Dawntrail. They’ve had all the second chances to correct what they’ve done, 7.1 was the last straw. Branch out your channel is going to die like this game.

[@Vampireinarm1]

"already working on 8.x" please, for the love of all that is good throw Wuk Lame-at in the same hole you guys threw Lyse in and never look back

[@SorasShadow1]

why wouldn't the expac focus character get chucked into the msq relevance hole with aymeric, hien, lyse, the arr leaders, cid, and literally everybody else? does it need to be specified or do you just feel the need to say you dislike a character on something that isn't even about them?

[@shadominx3696]

Oh look. Another follower. 😂 you people are so childish.

[@Suplee2]

So, basically, same stuff as before. New Raid, new cosmic exploration (like Endwalker isle exploration i presume). Did they address the data leak on their side? Or the issue is solved by giving out a legal advice to the modder? Want to be excited but can't. It is getting stale. Yoshi needs to do better in all honesty. He can do, if he wants to.....

[@Jun_TheFool]

I stopped following the subreddit since they decided to get political. I prefer meoni as my ff14 news source anyways

[@PolluxStrike]

If it’s not 7.2 that is gonna be a disappointment.

[@Bardic_Knowledge]

My only real issue with the Honey B Lovely fight was the section of fight where the attack zones start popping up at random and you have to just run around without attacking (unless you're phys ranged) to not get hit. That's what I hope they work on.

[@darrellbruh1335]

Get good. It's full uptime.

[@titmit6940]

It might seem random but it does follow a particular pattern. The hearts also float in a set pattern just like in bullet hell(easy mode, think of attacks that seems crazy with bullets everywhere but you only actually have to occasionally move sideway). It's impossible to actually dodge real random patterns while keeping full uptime

[@Bardic_Knowledge]

@@titmit6940 I guess it just felt random in the moment. And that it took the group I did it with four times almost entirely because of the zone spam section. So I guess I have some bias, is all.
