Petition- make very hard dungeons easier or aside from main story line

[Onyxys]

Besides Coil.. name me one VERY hard dungeon. If you are looking for an easy game to play. Try Hello Kitty Online. Not easy enough? How about Tic-Tac-Toe? Still too hard?? Then how about.... WoW?

I'm in care about all the game and its future. You want to say, that WoW is a bad game? Almost 10 years WoW is the most popular online game and you dare to say, that FF no need to be like Wow? Who are you to say such things? If FF will get just 10% of WoW popularity and not be closed at least nearest 2-3 years it will be great, so please, dont say stupid things.

Yes. Im still waiting for answer from Community manager in this thread

This game doesn't even need 10% of WoWs popularity to be successful, look at FF11 which has gone on longer than WoW and it hasn't even been close(still p2p). If you're expecting a CM to come in here though then I've got some bad news for you, unless you can learn Japanese they don't care to post in the silly English forums with anything meaningful even though we compose 60%+ of their game.

You also need to understand what will happen if they make the remaining hard instances easier, people will laugh their way through them and then what will they do? They will then officially be done with the story until the next patch, there will be nothing more for them to work on if they want to see the story meaning they'll leave a lot faster than if they actually had to work to see what was left.

Yes. It is very hard to make realy new content for all players- skilled and casual. Much more simple to clone hardcore trials: Ifrit normal, hard, extrime, super extrime, hyper extrime, impossible. Yes. It is much more simple. And developers think, that it is a good way to hold players in the game? No need to create new locations, new dungeons.. very "nice"- just more trial modes. And developers dont care, that players are not able to play the whole content, because they got stucked on some UNBALANCED hard dungeon and leaving the game? Are you talking about that?

Oi. While I understand the intent behind the thread, nerfing content would be the worst thing to ever happen in this game. One of the only things it's got going for it is the 'difficulty', and personally, I've found every dungeon to be piss easy so far.

Exactly. I kind of hope the people who think content is too hard decide to leave. This would put less bad players in duty finder, and would in essence make the game easier as a result. I remember WoW before they nerfed everything, and it was a much better game back then. One actually had to have skill to beat content.

[Pellegri]

The only "unbalanced" thing is the final boss in coil, if you're seriously trying to say titan is unbalanced then you don't look around enough to see the hundreds of people with their relic. Do not keep comparing this games content to WoW or other games that have gone more casual over time. Considering WoW hasn't even come out in Japan they could give zero shits as to what keeps people happy over there, if Square wants more difficult content in their game that actually makes people react or communicate with other people then that is their choice, with how FF11 has been over the last 11 years they have shown they do not need a game to be largely popular for it to be successful.

I think what will help less experienced players more than lowering difficulty is SE doing something about the long queue times to some of these fights.
Another thing that will help, and this one is one the community, is experienced players being less toxic to new players to a fight/dungeon.

The problem is, this is a game built on top of a game. Technically the first expansion of the original. They are already in the works of the expansion, which will add all you talk about and more. There are three types of players in game currently, hardcore, who level fast, gear up and beat content fast, and are left wanting, casual, who are decent players who just do not have the time to level as fast, but are still good players, and the last, the horrible player, who cannot follow simple instructions in the supposed "hard" dungeons. How many people have had a horrible time in Sunken Temple, just because people cannot understand the mechanics of the first boss.

the primals are actually really easy, the problem is finding 7 others who think so too. one scrub healer or tank or a couple scrub dps can ruin it for you even if you game for a living. not everyone cares to be in a hardcore fc that raids 5+ nights a week either, so there does need to be some alternative for the more casual players. easier but time consuming, that still involves hm primals in some form.

It is not Se fault for the long queue times. People are not leveling the jobs that are lacking. Look at the posts here as an example, compare the amount of damage dealers to healers and tanks, its not SE fault for this. I know people do not want a WoW clone, but there is one thing that helped this problem there, rewarding people for completing dungeons when queued as these jobs.

WoW hater club member? Many of WoW HM fights are much more involved and difficult than anything in ffxiv, or any mmo really. I don't care to play wow anymore, but facts are facts.
