    I enjoy Titan EX, it really isn't hard, only more memorizing patterns. What is not fun is watching people die to first set of plumes, or unable to dodge anything because of one excuse or another. Half the time I see people get hit by circle bombs, because its somehow hard to see the first bomb drop, and run to it after it explodes. People need to stop making excuses and get better at mechanics, you'll find the fight is a lot more "fun" then you thought.

    My comment isn't directed at people with unfixable internet issues, but these people should realize their limitations and not blame the game mechanics which make for a good/dynamic boss fight.

    Did you just call simple, repetitive, easy mechanics "fun"? This is the root of this issue; for the eleven thousandth time, it's not about hard or not hard, excuses or not excuses. I'm happy people enjoy the fight, enjoy winning it and whatever else the enjoy about it, as that is subjective and not everyone will love everything... but in this thread people have, with a straight face, called this a well-designed fight. That is beyond me.

    Nothing against your post in particular even though it is the one I quoted... I picked it for the "people making excuses" line... as stated before, by me and others, even people clearing this fight regularly may not like it.

    How is it badly designed? All you have is that its scripted? Considering that a vast majority of everything in this game is scripted, that isn't a real reason to single out Titan EX specifically. If you have an issue overall with "scripted" fights, then you should make a thread more general on scripted fights and talk about it there. Titan EX is a vast improvement upon Titan HM, and is overall one of the more fun fights we have. Do I like fully scripted fights? Not at all actually, but that doesn't make Titan EX a bad fight or *not fun*.

    I think SE has a lot of room to improve in the area of "scripted fights", but that is a general beef I have with their end game and I don't mind Titan EX at all.

    I have listed the specific reasons in previous posts, in this very thread if I'm not mistaken, so no. I'm not going to do it again. Read the thread and retain the information that's already been written if you want your voice to have weight.
