You've lost your mind >.>. That's just my opinion, of course. I remember when CoP was HARD, and you literally spent millions on meds and RR items after hours of farming items to weaken your opponents. To this day, I have flashbacks and nightmares of how, I, the WHM, made Ouryu flail. /cry

However, I can also see where, even if not for the love of the storyline, you'd want to test your might against some old adversaries.
