Is anyone else really disappointed with the nerfs coming in 2.2?

yet you have no proof of this neither do i but hey there just opinions on what might happen you say ppl will choose the easy way out yet i think you have forgotten those that have already beat it wont even need it so the challenge for them is still there players that want an easy way out the option is there not every1 will do things with the buff hell some players may start winning ex primals 3-4 times then stop using it cause they feel they have learnt the fight enough that they are ready to face the challenge

Proof? I have years of experience in many other MMOs. That's what people do.

It ain't forced it's optional. You can choose to do or to not do end game content. You can choose to run it with your party or pick up strangers. You can choose to or not to use your best in slot gear. You have the choice to choose between jobs and roles. You can choose to use the echo buffs or not. Food buffs, potions, protect, stoneskin, regen, stuns, etc are all optional as well as much as using a Dragoon throughout the entire encounter.

The only thing that's "forced" is the "skill" needed to "complete" end-game content and not everyone will have the opportunity to be lucky to have highly skilled and reliable players to do it with be it from FC, LS, PF, or DF.

I have the option to waste my time with Twintania and Titan EX but I choose not to waste my gil and time on them when I can do something else that's more productive for me.

It's an illusion of choice. Always has and always will be when the majority is against you. When the majority choose to keep the buff, and based on my experience, they will, even if you remove yours, the fight as a whole is still nerfed for that person. When the majority chooses to accept the buff, that leaves less people that want to do it at the normal difficulty, making it harder and sometimes impossible to find them. Again, this is from experience.
