Well the game has lost some of its longevity because of it. You can't argue that.Quote:

People looking for challenge are more than free to fight the harder Abyssea NMs without cruor buffs or atma. Could step that back further and use sub-par gear. Just don't be surprised if few are actually interested in doing so because even in "EZ MODE!" FFXI, there's still some grind to it.
Why do people STILL talk about challenging content? Not a single person who has ever complained about this has had the will to participate in hard content. Want a challenge? Kill AV without melee zerg... oh wait, you don't want to do that because you want to "do as much damage as possible while still being hard"... ok so lets add NM with 100 000 000 000 HP... no now you'll complain that you don't want to fight for 24 straight hours.
Just accept that whatever SE makes, you'll take the easy way out. And you'll be complaining for life.
Well, one of the problems with the challenging content that was in the game before was how bottlenecked it was. Like even fighting AV required doing a large amount of tedious tasks. I don't find grinding to be challenging, just long and boring. I like the format of Abyssea, I hope that they keep it, but would like to see harder fights that may require around 6 people.
No thanks. Mindless grinding doesn't prove anything.
I would like to see them implement both. Add more content to Aby for the people who just want to zip to 99 and be done with the game, but also add something harder for the people who would like a challenge. Preferably something "new".
