Please stop asking SE to make FFXIV more easy!

[Monos]

I ask people to stop whineing and start playing to get better, instead of asking SE to dumb the game down on their lazy level.

It's not about coils or EX modes, it's about people who can't even find all the detonators in Rogue quest and keep whineing that the game is too hard... and there's soo much more examples. When some people are lazy or too dumb to actually play this game and instead of putting more effort in it (no, not getting better gear, but listen and learn mechanics etc.) they whine to SE to dumb the game down to their level!

Wow. That statement alone makes my head hurt because of how thick-headed it is.

Tell me, what is your version of difficult? How does it compare to mine? How does it compare to everyone in this forum? Everyone in the game? Everyone in all games?

Is your "easy" clearing Dark Souls without dying?
Is your "hard" Night 3 of Five Nights at Freddy's 2?
Is your "hard" dying to the goomba at the start of 1-1? (Seriously, watching people fail that is...somewhat sanity-destroying.)
Is Nuzlocke run your "easy" in Pokemon?

Quick! Pre-Yoshi-P FFXIV, hard or easy? There are no "easy parts" or "hard parts." You can only pick one blanket statement.

I seemed to recall a fondness for 1.0's gathering system. Oh! Remember when the game didn't have auto-attack? No big deal, right?

My point is, "difficult" is a different concept to everyone. They say that there's always someone better than you out there, so when you're in Savage Coil T13, recording a video for Youtube, and the second comment (because the first is "first") is calling you a filthy casual and telling you to stick to the baby play area, obviously that person has a higher difficulty of preference.

You can't determine what is "hard" or what is "easy" in one fell swoop. I can agree that it would be preferable to have both standards put into each patch, which it sounds like they're doing with Alexander in Heavensward.
