Gameplay is inseparable from a story told.
Otherwise they would just make another movie.

So 3 ults, 3 memoria ex style extremes, and cycle unreals faster please.

Noo I don't want to have to sit through the headache of finding players to do extreme runs, or schedule time to do ultimate progs just to see interesting mechanics And I really don't want to have to sit in a box with a boss thrown at me to be engaged either. Trials and raids in this game are not replacements for dungeon experiences. And throwing decent players into time-consuming content and ONLY time-consuming content is a great way to alienate casual players who play games to not be bored.

I want cool, casual, quick in/quick out scenarios that respect my time, and my abilities as a level-capped player.

That is why the story will not be removed, but have you even played any other ff games?

They all have difficult boss fights as part of the main story.

7 10, 12, 13, 15.......


Like, I love the story of XIV, but we need to stop this "game needs to be brain dead because FF" thing, because 1 it's not true and 2 you are doing yourself and everyone a disservice.

Everyone, or just a vocal minority?

Vocal minority. It's not like harder versions of most fights don't exist if players are looking to challenge themselves a bit. Extreme is probably considered midcore content, but that doesn't make it any less of a challenge for a lot of people. I see nothing wrong with story mode versions of important boss fights. Considering it has been a thing since ARR, I'm guessing a lot of people feel that way.

If you actually think making all story-mandatory content easier than a toddler's coloring book is a standard for the FF series, I would implore you to play almost any FF game other than XIV. Because you very obviously haven't.

From the start I feel they should have stuck to the mindset of get good or go home and never did any nerfs to a duty unless something was found to actually be broken or not working as intended. A majority of the duty nerfs we've gotten were literally a result of a vocal minority on this forum not wanting to do mechanics or wanting to be carried while other people do the duty. We would most likely have far less threads now complaining about bad players if they'd done so as these people would have either learned how to do mechanics, left to find a game they can play pushing 1 button, or had their accounts hijacked by RMT via scams offering duty clears. Appeasing these people just hurts the game overall because it encourages more players to be lazy.

No one is asking for story content to be EX or Savage level.

But name ANY RPG where the game doesn't get progressively harder as you go through the story.

We are basically still playing the same difficulty in non-ex and savage content as we were 8 years ago, and easier in some cases.

And yes, it does everyone a disservice if the developers and people at large think you can only complete braindead content. That means they think you have literally 0 skill in a game you have been playing hundred or thousands of hours in.

Yet here we are, with the game more popular than ever.

Largely due to WoW flying to close to the sun and having essentially rapists on payroll. But yeah we're definitely doing well and it was all because the game was super good in every single way.
