Will you quit if this game becomes raid-centric?

[Visch]

You'd have to prove to me that numbers wise there is are enough players who want this to dedicate development time to content that what I am feeeling a majority of the players would not use.

The "majority" of players? You mean the level 29 people who don't play the game and have 2000 posts? Or the dunesfolk for dinner people who think they're good because they have every job leveled and don't know how to play them?

The game NEEDS rare items from HNMs or not, it doesn't matter. If not everyone will come for a patch, then quit.

No, I don't care if someone else has better items than me. I just don't want the core of endgame content to revolve around an activity I hate like it did in FFXI.

No one said everything has to be HNMs...? It didn't revolve around it in XI either.

Look at Einherjar. It is the perfect model.

Naturally people who can commit more time are always going to have better items, but that doesn't mean the method of getting items should be something that frustrates most of the people who participate in it.

No...? Everyone has everything from the dungeons because all you have to do is walk in and because people babystepped baddies thru with youtube videos on orge and batraal. It's not natural in this game apparently.

Everybody who wants to waste 3h of time for fighting a Mob for 5min needs to be shot and buried.

Sounds like someone's mad they didn't get ridill.

Those times are over.

You wish. Maybe if you moved to China.

If I want to do endgame I WANT TO decide when that's gonna be, not when the game tells me it's ok now.

And when is that? The patch every six months that EVERYONE WHO IS GOOD BEATS AND GETS ALL THE ITEMS IN LESS THAN A WEEK?

Not to mention I'd rather have instanced raids with actual skill being required to get it cleared, instead of just winning a claim on a mob that is faceroll after claiming it...

Why can't something not in an instance take skill to kill? Because you don't want to compete with people because you might cry someone beat you?

The biggest difficulty in XI never was beating something, it was claiming it...and that's stupid and only favours hardcore people in a bad way.

What was XI to you? Camping Fafnir and behemoth? Not everything came from HNMs.

I'm "hardcore" myself, but I'd rather be tested on my skill, than the amount of time I can play in one sitting...

Go "test your skills" in WoW if you want to be able to bang your head on the keyboard and get items like Darkhold.
