It hasn't even been a full day

Yes, it does actually hinder it to an extent, players new to the content will feel overwhelmed to the content they want to run, because they will only find parties asking for people who have cleared or have it down on farm, happened to me and the majority of the playerbase whenever new hardcore content gets released. I know quite a few people who didn't get to do Sephirot EX until it was open to the Duty Finder because even on the first week, they could only find PF parties asking for people who have it down to farm. It gives the idea that everyone should know what is what by day one and that's just not healthy to the general masses.

The 3.3 patch helps tho now. With the practice options. At this point in time i think its a solved problem unless people just want to get carried >.>

There's practice options? Where?

It took me 3 freaking hours to do normal today, what are these people.

Then again, a lot of people were very very inept in groups today as well, because i also spent an hour wiping on the second boss in Mhach because people couldn't handle the 2 mechanics of the add phase.

The game was characterized by offering content that can quickly devour.

I am one of those...couldnt join any groups for Seph, same for Thord Ex. So yes is right PF you can dowhat you want but is true too content should be open right awayin DF as wll. One doesnt exclude the other Not sure why is gated behind a lock in DF.

What's stopping you from hosting your own party? You don't have to depend on people who want to farm if you want to learn.
