Here we go again

This thread has evolved from "game is too difficult" to "I have astigmatism, and I demand I can play this game without my glasses on."

I'm sorry but most players want dungeons that you actually have to be engaged for. And I don't mean difficult mechanics, the mechanics in the new dungeon are not hard at all, they just require you to pay at least 10% attention to the game. It's not fair for the majority of the players that want to actually play the game when they play the game for everything to be doable blindfolded.

Yup because now they are using any excuse they can to justify why the dev team should cater to specifically them and if they don't its abelist and discrimination.

I know everyone is dofferent but the expectation needs to be that by level 100 you can do a basic dungeon. Rezzes in trusts are an "I win" button because NPC's will do the mechanics for you and you'll be raised and win.

You may pretend this is a visual novel but it isn't. Every RPG expects you to master the systems to a minimum and this is the minimum. There is nothing here that anyone cannot learn with dying a few times and learning from each mistake. Absoutley nothing. The problem is that people use whatever reasons they can to avoid being told that "accessibility" and "entitlement" are the same in this situation. The game will not and should not change for a few people.

I’ve already addressed your points multiple times, and it’s clear you’re unwilling to consider any perspective but your own. At this point, it’s just going in circles. I’m done engaging with someone who refuses to understand that accessibility isn’t entitlement it’s inclusion. Believe what you want, but I’m not wasting more energy on this. Keep being delusional about what the game really is. Have a good day.

What you want isnt accessibility its a brain dead mode for lazy players. Tell me what is stopping any of these people you are talking about from going again and finding a way to get around this pretend disability and clear the encounter by learning what works for them?

So my logical conclusion was you said "astigmatism is the reason you shouldn't be on the road". How is that judgemental on my part when I have the same affliction? In fact, if you google it it reads: Astigmatism is a common vision condition where the eye's cornea or lens has an uneven curvature, causing blurred or distorted vision at all distances.

Sorry I'm not one to blindly take arguments that make no sense.

I’m not making blind arguments, you misinterpreted what was said and jumped to conclusions. That’s judgmental, regardless of whether you share the same condition. Having astigmatism doesn’t give you the right to speak over someone else’s experience or twist their words.

It’s also clear you’re more interested in being combative and dismissive than having a respectful conversation, so I’m stepping away. I’m not wasting more time on someone who refuses to engage in a respectful manner with others.

You’re not here for a genuine discussion just rage baiting and throwing around ignorant takes and insults. Dismissing real challenges as “pretend disabilities” is not only offensive, it shows how self-absorbed and out of touch you are. I’m not engaging with someone who refuses to listen, learn, or show basic decency.

I've made my point multiple times in this thread, I'm going to play XIV now and have fun :)

I am so serious right now.

Everyone saying that dumbing down combat because its too hard but also stating they don't want an "I win" mode just accessibility and crying abelist, what is stopping anyone with a disability from dying and going again until they find a way to make the encounter work in their brain? There will be a tell somewhere they will eventually find, there will be a way to recognise and memorise after a few deaths no matter what disability. Why can't they die a few times and overcome this challenge instead of demanding the game changes for them?

To be fair OPs solution is actually completely harmless to you, and can be implemented in a way such that it is completely harmless to you, or anyone else that wants a challenge for that matter.

You'll have a better time with a visual novel or animal crossing. Game too hard. Need nerf
