    [Poll] Hard vs Easy (Yea, I went there)

    Looking at the recent poll of capped vs uncapped content, I find that quite a few people are contradicting what they were asking for only a few short months ago. I'm curious to see who really wants challenging content that can take multiple attempts to complete vs people who want easily and quickly completed content.

    Level caps aside, what is "good" content to YOU?

    Do you like to be challenged throughout the entire game making the rewards seem like something you earned.

    Or

    Do you like to quickly complete content as fast as possible and move on to the next thing?

    Keep in mind that having the option to choose is irrelevant for this poll as you will still choose your preferred play style if given a choice. Vote on the type of content that YOU would normally play.

    I cast my vote for challenging content.


    **Edited options to better reflect the difference between hard and easy content.
    My apologies, But naturally I would think of hard content as being more time consuming than easy content simply because of increased risk of failure, thus needing repeated attempts for completion.

    Like this post if you like:

    Content that requires you to form strategies. Content that you can not complete without cooperation of party members (where applicable.) Content where success is often as good a reward as the loot that comes with it.

    Content that, while fun, does not require much stratgey. Content that can be solo'd even if designed for groups. Content where loot is often the main accomplishment when completed as designed.

    This is an over-simplified poll based on an overly complicated debate.

    Sure, it's oversimplified, because the two opposites are very simple. We're dealing with black and white here, and while being given the option of having a choice is definitely plausible, you will still choose to do it the way YOU want to.

    Be as biased as you wish (not saying your comment was biased at all,) it's about what each specific person finds more enjoyable, not what they think is better for the game itself.

    I agree. The OP is also trying to force people to choose between solo and party play (red option says you need a party, blue option says it can be solo'ed). Sense of accomplishment doesn't always equal party play. Steep leveling curves, rep grinds that take months, and epically long quest chains give me a sense of accomplishment when completed, but don't necessarily mean that I had to have a group to do it.

    By no means was I implying what you stated. Solo content can be tough and require strategies. Where did I say that only Group content is challenging?

    You might want to think about rewording the options then, because it absolutely reads that way.
