Survey: Community Opinions Regarding Parsing/Parsers in Final Fantasy XIV

[Oscura]

the encounters have been similar for the most part

Not even going to waste my time explaining why someone who doesn't raid shouldn't even bother posting their meaningless opinion on how similar or different encounters have been.

The big difference is that its easier overall, and people only adapted because they nerfed the heck out of HW to bring it down to a much more palatable level.Whenever they make it hard again, grats less than 1% of the playerbase clears, i.e Super Savage.

They never "nerfed" HW. If you're referring to Gordias, they went on record to say they that they didn't even test the content properly. It had nothing to do with difficulty. It was developer incompetence.

I don't think they'd adapt as easy as people think, and for people who talk so much about unskilled players, they forget how much raiding was nerfed to keep people even doing it,

That's your opinion, and the only raiding content "nerfed," aside from post-relevance or during echo is the difficulty comparison between Omega and Alexander, specifically creator. They only lowered the difficulty because people they wanted a lower bottom line. Raiders, who we are talking about, not casuals, did the content just fine and had little complaints. In fact some people considered creator and omega too easy.

and how easy SE can just break 90% of raiders through difficulty in content.

Flat out untrue. Generally anyone who gets cold feet and quits was never a serious raider in the first place. Most midcore groups have never quit content just because it was difficult.

And pigheaded is the constant raider obsession with getting parsers into the game; they need to make raids much harder if they are going to worry so much about others playing and not themselves.

"I don't like the way certain people talk so I'm validated in making rude comments," Ok. Two wrongs don't make a right. Just because you think that way doesn't mean you can blanket statement raiders as people who are incapable of playing the game if their precious meta is broken, or that they're too stupid to function in conditions where things aren't ideal for them. Despite the fact that raiders have constantly asked for that, which is why ultimate exists. There are plenty of groups who are still attempting to clear ultimate, even if many haven't.

Also it's not just raiders who want parsers, but feel free to constantly ignore those people who have already stated they don't raid and still want one.

Do you really just hate people having a different definition of fun than you? It feels like like everything you post is so personally driven.

Coming in here and calling people (key word here is people) pigheaded just because you disagree with them is not civilized.

Was this addressing me? I actually can't tell since you mention the keyword, and I was specifically addressing the words being used and less Riyah as a person.
