The Ifrit Fight is Dangerous to the Community.

[SilvertearRen]

What you will do, instead of dividing the community, is to instead expel and ignore one part of it completely for your own selfish needs.

Hardcore have nothing to do? Hardcore quit and gtfo.

Uh. Um. Since when is scaleable content "expelling" hardcore players? It simply adds the ability to include casuals in the content, while retaining the "hardcore" mode. Hardcore players can just simply ignore the lower levels and do the higher level option if they're so hellbent on being true hardcore?

Or, with each major patch, the new content will be the next "hard" content and previous content is made easier so everyone can catch up.

Since you seem to be open for the idea of waiting a while to give it a try anyway.

Yes, I'm open to the idea of waiting, but it's not going to stop me from being critical of what I see as bad game design in an advancing genre.

Now guys, don't jump on the guy for having a problem with memorization. However, I will have to say... you only need to learn three different stances. Three. It isn't hard to remember even for a person with poor memorization.

You just are not trying. It's as simple as that.

Very well, then. I shall examine that data, if you can provide me with a link. Is there a wiki with each known stance, each known precursor to all known attacks, as well as the timers? I could probably take a few minutes each day to review that information before/after I deal with household business/college business.

Ifrit fight is easy compared to this....

Server lag is a huge issue. Even when I make sure to WS after ifrit tp moves so that I'm rarely animation locked, I can be far out of the spots on my own screen and still get hit.

On top of that, in cases where I die, players have said that while on their screen and I die on the spot, my dead body will sail to where I actually am on my own screen. (in a very safe location far from the blast)

Nope, because it's something you can just pick up in 5 or so tries, assuming you don't have the brain of a goldfish.

I totally started typing this before I saw the goldfish video posted btw, that was a smart goldfish.

What if I do have a brain of a goldfish?

Great minds think alike, eh?

Practice makes perfect, even a goldfish can memorize tunnel = food, and they got the short end of the stick when someone was handing out short term and long term memory.

Now I feel bad for making fun of goldfish

Then may god have mercy on your soul.

I get the feeling He hasn't been merciful to me these past five years. :|
