    Still part of the "difficulty" people asked for, poor example or not in your opinion.

    Any game made in the same genre lift things from each other. This is not new.

That doesn't mean they have to be bumped up to Brute Justice or Living Liquid levels. Letting the "devs be devs" is a nice sentiment but if the content bores, people will wind up not doing it.
    The answer is when this was asked to Yoshida, he made a point to say, "First you wanted harder content. We gave you Gordias. Then you said it was too hard." When it was brought up again in another panel, can't remember if it was Live Letter or the Fanfest or one of the cons, someone said the game was too easy. His response: "Good." These are literal quotes that have been said since the year turned 2017- you can find the proof in past videos. Yoshida cares about how clearable the content is in the game. Considering how abysmal the clear rates are for raids (7% highest in NA, 10% minimum JP), I don't blame him for making the game easier. Numbers show the majority of players simply don't have the skillset to handle harder content or just have no interest in doing that content.
