So they recently added in pri-tri upgrading and xbox players seem to have mixed feelings on the upgrades vs the base 1-15. I think flat out the xbox community won't be as receptive to a more hardcore version from this, but I also think changes like this could potentially make the end game for this a lot different.. Here's my proposals.
 

1. remove tet/pen from the game entirely: if this happens the upgrading becomes locked at what it currently is and allows people to focus primarily on obtaining boss gear (and if they eventually max a character they could even think about getting multiple maxed characters). this changes a few core values and mechanics about the game, but doesn't defeat the purpose of grinding past your "cap". you still need skill xp and levels.

2.  just leave it as is and port from pc: if this happens the upgrading only gets harder from here on out. appeals to the dedicated grinder that wants their effort to show.

3. remove tet/pen from armor and weapons, leaving it on accessories: So it takes out the pain of enhancing the boss gears, but it keeps the accessory grind at pen for those extremely risky gambler types that want to improve their gear. I think this could potentially be the best option for xbox as it's a little less watered down from the full power of pen armor/weapons, but it doesn't destroy the end game desire to get stronger than others. (it also creates less of a gear gap between veterans and newbies because the power levels of tet/pen are greater on weps/armors). to combat the lost power for game balance sake they could just try to add that damage to the base values.

to those people that say devs won't do this because of lost revenue from the enhancing related cash shop stuff, this would be the perfect opportunity for Pearl Abyss to shift their focus on the cash shop to a market that appeals to xbox, more cosmetics. The players will buy new outfits that release just to have more stuff to wear. look at fortnite.

Your poll questions and answers don't make sense.

Should they introduce tet/pen gear?

YES, the current system is good.

NO, we need the new stuff.

Huh. Its like each answer is a contradiction of the question

That's never going to happen. Cron stones via costumes make them a lot of money.

I pretty clearly said Yes leave it at the tri cap and NO we need tet/pen. that's a pretty clear indicator of what i'm trying to say lol.

Each answer is it's own response to the question, you're reading it like the answers are responses to the previous answer. 

But I updated the post to be worded differently to avoid that confusion in the future.

it makes them a lot of money off a few whales, but the xbox version is going to have far less whales considerably. If they want to continue to monetize the game on xbox version they need to make the game last as long as possible. They can shift their cash shop focus for the xbox vesion to reflect its market, or they could try to squeeze a few bucks out of a couple players that are gonna spend. but I can guarantee that if the game is already getting bad reviews because of some of those systems, making those systems harder on the xbox will just drive a lot of the players away. I think you underestimate the amount of money a lot of people would spend if they just increased their costume amount. in a game like fortnite where there are hundreds of skins people regularly spend to change the look of their character, especially if they keep up with that sort of content.

Yes. After u edited it then replied.  Admit to the fault and move on

no, they said the exact same thing besides me removing the yes/no part. that's literally what was changed, but moving on.

Should they introduce tet/pen?

Yes the game would be fine with current gear cap.

No they should add tet/pen?

How is that not a contradiction.  Saying yes and the game would be fine with current content is not saying YES to the question asked though.

Pen and Tet are this games way of extending content and generate revenue at the same time.

Unless they can find a better source of money that conflicts with the hearing method, they will keep it.

Building TRI was easy, but do it 76 times for the same gear.

introduce tet/pen?

yes the game would be fine with cap at tri. 

no they should add them.

do something else.

do you see why the yes/no could be confusing for some and not others, hence why i removed it all together rather than try to "fix" it?

yes, I agree. But you could easily still have that extended content with accessory being pen and gear/armor being capped at tri. accessory enchantment is pretty difficult and risky especially at the higher levels. it gives that significant diminishing returns so that the newer players don't get annihilated to the bone every time. yes theres an advantage for geared players, yes you get rewarded for your time still, yes the end game cap is still hard to hit. if they did this i'd recommend removing the safe enchants from accessory. they still get valks cry/cron stone purchases this way as well.
