brianmah5965: The floating nightlight is a bonus to your chance of obtaining light, increasing the odds of it happening by 3% while you're facing East at an angle of 93.7 degrees when delivering the killing blow, but only on Saturdays in the morning when Mars is in alignment.

hirudemonstrife: Those ice crystals are the glowing tears of your watchers as you throw out spare relic material

Zippercdrr: The lights are there to cause people to wounder what they are about. Gunn Lee went drinking with Yoshi-P and they woke up with a note on a napkin that just read "Nightlight to troll players, but in Japanese"

This confused them, so they took it to Koji Fox to translate

SKy_the_Thunder: I'm half sure the floating lights just serve as obvious landmarks in the otherwise very same-y landscape. Just something to catch your eye and help navigate. "The tunnel just to the right behind the lights from where you enter the area" is easier to remember than "the tunnel between these two generic rock formations somewhere partially around the area".

Tinandel: Pagos is fun in one very specific way: after about the first hour or two in there, everybody goes insane and into some bizarre form of acceptance. There is comraderie in your shared suffering.

donutsteel6797: The floating nightlight says "It's lightin' time" and lights all over those nights.

Nobrev: the lights are cameras the dev team can watch through to refill their player-suffering tanks

droppedcombofiend2707: It would be great to see you play through the FF series with fresh eyes. The series is so steeped in nostalgia for so many people that it's pretty rare to get a fresh perspective. It'd be even better if you played them on stream so we could see your reactions.

acehealer4212: The floating lights are there to attract giant moth mobs to Pagos. And if you kill them you get a ton of progress towards your relic. But the moths won't arrive until 2026.

LovuxTheGreat: I got SUPER filtered at launch Pagos after delevelling twice due to forced respawn when rez timer ran out because no one came to rez me even though I shouted my coords in a full instance, and to top it all off I got kicked from the instance because the delevelling put me at a lower lvl than the requirement to enter Pagos. ;_; It wasn't until late Shadowbringers where I actually finished the Eureka storyline (including Baldesion Arsenal!) and I am currently working on the Pyros weapon stages on my remaining relics!

ShindoKokoro: As someone who played FFXI which eureka is somewhat modeled on, all I can think of when I see those big crystals are UFOs from sea, and if I walk toward them they will drop down and murder me.

robertrappaport3610: Pagos is the most FFXI out of all Eureka content. Slow to start, annoying but super interesting later on when you know the map. Then annoying again when trying to do the last quest to complete the area. Looking at you Marlboros and Griffins

SenetAsylum: Honestly found Pagos to be my favourite, the zone was very interesting to me and I loved the sleeping dragons, the fun little hidden zones. Also didn't much mind not having logograms as I didn't just have em whilst leveling in Pagos.

Hydatos is the least favourite imo, so slow with crystals and so big with absolutely nothing to distinct one area of it from another. I'd rather spend all my time in Pagos to get my final stage relic compared to Hydatos.

mookgoon: The floating nightlight actually decreases your chance of obtaining light. It absorbs the light when nearby, hence why it is so bright.
