Coil mode for main story

[TrystWildkey]

I don't know, you tell me. Why does every game have the most important story bits locked behind the most hardest content in the game? Why do you seem to complain about this in ff14 out of any other game in existence?

1 - Because when I decided to play this game in 1.0, I was allowed to play through the entire storyline as a weaver.
2 - Because when 1.0 ended, I was able to successfully play through the storyline without combat being outside my skill level.
3 - Because when 1.0 ended, it was with Bahamut wreaking havoc and I expected to be able to find out what happened.
4 - Because combat is SO different from 1.0 and 1.23 that I won't be able to play through Coil until it is nerfed.

Mainly it boils down to this game being launched as one thing that was well within my limits, then being changed to a game at the extreme end of my limits with hard mode primals and coil OUTSIDE of them.

and there goes your argument.
This is NOT 1.0, this is ARR, if you don't like that tough shit.
most of this thread comes from you being butthurt the changed and fixed a fundamentally flawed game as an apology to the majority of the fans.
you are doing the equivalent of arguing that XIV is not the same as XI

You are talking to someone who would probably argue that ffVII should be nerfed because the northern cave is the hardest area in the game and holds key story elements somehow i doubt they will listen

Nope. Northern cave was fine. For 2 reasons, first, I could over-level myself and add the right materia combinations. Second, because it was still turn based gameplay.

My difficulties come into play when combat is too fast paced. And since you haven't bothered to read my previous posts, I'll summarize.

Though this game seems easy to you, it is not easy to me. I know that I have coordination, muscle memory, and reaction time difficulties. This is why I choose my games wisely. 1.0 fit my limits and my interests. 2.0 is at the upper end of my limits, but I still enjoy it. I do work at my job, and I do research fights and try to get better. I do not want anything else lowered in difficulty.

*sigh* I'm not butthurt, I'm disappointed. I've also previously stated that this is not game breaking for me as difficulty will eventually be lowered. I've also previously said that I wasn't begging, pleading or demanding that this be fixed or I would quit.

Most of your posts seem to be trying to pick a fight rather than intelligently discuss the options. So I believe I will now be using that very excellent 'ignore poster' option. Good day vile-person, er Vilehart

MMORPGS change, a lot, all the time. Due to what players want, new devs, producers, management etc. It's just how they are. I started to play plenty of games and then they turn out to be something different in days,weeks,months down the line. I get mad, but it is what it is.

You say you don't want anything else lowered in difficulty, you do know with more patches things will get harder (hopefully) and other raids and stuff with good story content attached to them will come out. What will you do then?

you madam are an idiot if you picked your game carefully you would not have picked this game if you truly knew your combat limitations you would have seen in the damn beta that this games combat system was much better and different than 1.0's and that you would not be able to adapt to that.
but instead you decide to go ahead and whine about how certain parts of this game are too hard because the combat system does not suit you and try to dumb the game down so you can play it, ruining the experience for everyone else.

You didn't beat all of 1.0/1.0's story or excel at 1.23 or anything remotely close. The are many things in 1.0 that were more difficult than the current iteration of the game.

Pssst. It might be a good idea to stop attacking people for having a different opinion than yours.

it might be a good idea if you did the same

I didn't beat Rivenroad hard. I admit that. Rivenroad normal mode took weeks, like 5-6 weeks with a mostly static group before I could beat the content. But, I beat Rivenroad, which gave me the story I wanted to see. And I never said I excelled at anything.

How did this tread degenerate into attacking me for my supporting someone else's idea and my choice in games? O.o
