Guess FFXI got easier because of my "personal feelings" and not because getting people to catch up.
Guess it was based on my "personal feelings" that nerfs are needed. Guess it is based on my "personal feelings" that echo is a thing.
DPS checks are a demerit that doesn't help anyone and it only serves as a tool for elitist to justify being jerks. Deadly Boss Mods is something that's helpful because it reminds people that they should react and what they are reacting too.
I don't think you understand what DPS checks are.
DPS checks are helpful because they give you a heads up, let you know if you're ready for the instance.
But a simple fact that can't be argued.
More info is good when trying to figure out how to best play your character.
DPS meter would give us more info.
Simple.
Honestly its just a game.
If you feel like not reaching a certain level of proficiency with your job, so be it.
But please understand why other people don't want to play with you.
It's not because they are jerks.
It's because they are better than you.
SO basically you don't want parsers / dps checks, but you want a tool that actually shuts the player's brain off in order to make an encounter even easier than how it already is.
Yes, DBM is "helpful". Even someone else clearing the content for you is "helpful".
Guess what.
People don't want "help". They want to play. The only people wanting help are those that, for one reason or another, are unable to clear the current content without being carried.

When FFXI got easier it started hemorrhaging subs (abyssea) and I really suggest you look at the game again because they 180ed that (though probably too late) and FFXI itself has DPS checks in the form of rage timers, instance timers, and "the monster loses intrest and fades away" which were quite common to see if you didnt play with decent players. WoW even in LFR there are rage timers and idk how many times even this week I have seen groups fail on meeting them for stuff like Thokk the Bloodthirsty. Speaking of have you seen what direction WoW is going with LFR making it less desirable to run in the next expansion ? How about how it will be REQUIRED to pass a role check in the proving grounds to run heroics so that you have proven to understand your role well enough to be allowed to participate in harder content. If you are going to start throwing "facts" out to support your claims I would highly suggest researching what you are talking about first.
