Why are people calling it “casualbringers” now?

[Barraind]

People gave Ghostcrawler crap but he was way better than what WoW has now. He might not have always made everyone happy but he usually felt the need to explain himself and his decisions in detail in ways that made sense. I think Yoshi P and company do pretty well in regards to class balance though. Not in every aspect but I would say most. Where they have major problems is limitations that they sort of inflicted on themselves at the very start of the game and never addressed it (Arcanist and SMN/SCH for example).

His problem was he thought he didnt need to take QA feedback.

There was a LOT of stuff caught in the bc/lk era well before it went live, but trust him he knows what hes doing guys.

He was better what whomever is currently turning the game into a ghost town (probably some personal issues that make me dislike him more than is due) I'll give him that.

People bandwagon onto complaints.

I guarantee you 90% or more of the people whining about "muh difficulty" haven't cleared past the first two fights of a savage tier, they just think complaining about the thing the raiders are complaining about will get them internet points.

Ignore them, they're stupid.

This smells of clickbait, I haven't heard anybody calling it casualbringers. But congrats on all the bites.

I haven't heard anyone call it that. Citation needed. Source? (Someone who matters, preferably?)

I first noticed the term in the title of a steam discussion post...

They might be referring to the Twitch chat during the LL a few days ago.

Though...everybody knows that anyone who regularly participates in the Twitch chat during those streams typically boasts a -10IQ. It's all shitposting and low-effort memes.

This game has always been uber casual, has it not?

Correct. I don't think there has ever been that much complexity to jobs. Most have been easy to pick up, relatively easy to master aside from a few jobs. The changes they are making for Shadowbringers make getting into every job easier which isn't really a bad thing imo. It's still going to take skill to master them, people will just be punished slightly less for messing up or not playing optimally. It's change though and people hate change.

I think you made this up yourself ..
I'm really excited about ShB it looks like fun
SB was casual bringers with all the easy primals and Eureka xD

Can anyone tell me why some people calling the game casual after shadowbringers skill showcase. Also people are comparing this to what WOW did, any context for that?

because people cant handle change and two people like copying and pasting memes that get popular to be cool. See any comment section, reddit, YT ever

Because it's getting more and more dumbed down and homogenized with every passing moment.. the only to "balance" jobs is make them all exactly the same... elimintate choice and variety and people can't possibly go wrong.

pld has cover / intervention.. OMG every other tank must have the same....
other tanks have a gap closer.. Must give one to PLD....

In a sense we really aren't that far away from what they did at the very start of 1.0 where literally the only differance between one class and another was the weapon they used....

this is completely wrong and furthest from the truth. It's different not dumbed down. jobs are smoother and we dont need 10k buttons anymore. Things are changing for the better and people like you are just afraid. The job video literally made the classes feel the most unique and complex it has been since launch. They just got rid of fluff tht has no purpose no skill level
