But weeks? That's ridiculous and I know a lot of people aren't doing it for fun, which is what a gaming is supposed to be about. Hardcore raiding is toxic in a lot of ways.

But don't be so thinskinned it's just one guy's opinion.
I'm not getting this at all. You're describing clearing something in the kind of timeframe I would expect for 'normal' difficult content, like the 'normal' mode Alex. Yet you're talking about Savage Alex. If you want the instant/quick gratification don't you already gain that from beating normal mode.

Hell, maybe it's time to rename these modes.

'Alexander: Normal' becomes 'Alexander: Training'

'Alexander: Savage' becomes 'Alexander: Raid'

The way you're talking you want all content to be beatable within hours. Even to me, that sounds like content with training wheels.
