Famitsu Interview - YoshiP 3 Year Anniversary Interview

Mmm I really wouldn't go that far to make it sound like the Primals were that huge of value.

Keep in mind, though, that Titan HM was such a frustrating roadblock that it caused many players to quit the game. I'd say Titan HM was definitely more difficult than coil turns 1 and 2. I don't really remember T4 well enough to make that same claim.

Titan was certainly the wall at the time. One typical reason however was lag or improper recognition. Initially, that really was a big problem for all versions of Titan.



Once we got used to it better though, and more people started using VPNs, it became less of a problem. That wasn't so much about learning a new mechanic as it was memorizing something you already knew but giving it an unnecessarily higher degree of priority.

The old server update in instances were 0.3 secs in the 2.0 days. In patch 2.1 they updated the server updates to 0.1 sec. This helped a lot of people clear Titan HM.

I feel T2 may have been slightly tougher than Titan HM (Rot mechanic). Much like Landslide in Titan HM, the laser attack ADS used was pretty tough to avoid (I recall a gif where a BRD steps out of the AoE and maybe a second or so later, still gets hit by the attack, almost getting KO'd). I'm not sure when the Enrage strategy was discovered, but I think it was near 2.1's release... or after?
