No. I don't play FF XIV for the challenge. I enjoy FF XIV as a relaxing game, I play for the story, the exploration, the social aspect, etc.. . Back then when The Binding Coil of Bahamut was released for the first time, I did not even bother with it, I just ignored it. If the game was made to be a constant challenge, I would simply play something else.
