"Elitism" vs "Casualism"

[Driavna]

Problem is people seem to have such a hate boner for Mythic + style content. Small form difficult content that allows for character progression would be awesome, though I do think many would feel that the mythic meta would bleed into normal small form content and dictate the pace even more so then what we already have now.

Though I would gladly welcome it.

In most cases that "hate boner" is justified. The introduction of Mythic+ created quite a few (big?) problems:


- ILvL Inflation. A month in and ILvL requirements to join a party are absurd.

- Normal and Heroic difficulty its pointless from a reward perspective, even more when Blizzard removed set bonuses during BFA. Pretty much, from a raiding standpoint, is mythic or nothing. This is why I stopped playing once Legion hit, finding a stable group for heroic is a nightmare.

- https://raider.io If you plan to PUG you better keep up with this.

- The whole drama around keys.

- If you plan to tank you better study, and memorized, the optimal routes for every single instance.


In order to really work for FFXIV it must be a self-contained piece of content, like Eureka or PoTD, with cosmetic rewards only. Also, SE will need to change the way dungeons trash and boss mechanics are approached.
