Dear Square Enix! Make the game harder, not easier!

That's what Blizzard has tried in MoP, Mr. Smiley. It's not working. At all. Their subs have dropped further because there are casual guilds who just can't get through some of those fights. And they give up.

A hardcore guild like mine will spend a month and a half on a fight, 400+ wipes. A casual guild? They probably won't even stick with it until wipe 30.

I haven't played mop much but I can say it sounds similar to cata issue, a lack of consistency. Not only is the game old and graphics not aging so well anymore but it sounds like even now they keep changing how they want to focus it which isn't going to keep anyone. They also base too much on daily chores which will drive people out when it becomes too much.

In any case, I'm done in here, gonna focus on my group ingame ;P

Agreed to all of that. What I'm hoping Square will do is fix the latency issues (because, well, as a healer it's driving me absolutely insane on fights like Hydra, for instance, where both tanks are in the exact same spot on MY screen, but one gets hit and the other doesn't) before they do serious nerfs. Currently, you're not just playing against the encounter...you're playing against the weird random sync of the servers + your own latency. And that is just a bit much, imo.
