with this mindset the future looks dim

[Lamentations]

Lol lazy would more aptly be people who have all day to explore you-tube, "instead" of having work to return home from, or perhaps memorizing said fight on you-tube instead of putting in the work to learn it cold.

Lazy could also be seen as 7 people who don't want to teach anyone anything, and just tell them to go watch a video.

Oh and I also have a job, matter of fact I have two, i am a foreman of a detail crew, and i am a journeyman farrier, (horseshoer), id rather direct my ambition online to learning a fight swinging a weapon instead of watching someone else do it on a video to make it easier for me or anyone else.

There is more "will" applied to keying your roll and learning the fight the hard way, than pressing "play" and watching someone else do it.

That sounds rather lazy to me, and to respond to your later reply due to posting limits, I do not feel the need to spoon feed or babysit people who feel they need the game to be made easier for them by only playing with people who cant play XIV without forehand knowledge of mechanics through you-tube.

At 52 I find learning the fight winning or dieing a lot more "grown up" than doing everything the easy way.

By all means define concretely for me babysitting, spoon feeding, and growing up, ive done them all far more than you probably ever will.
