    Thats sad the QTE is not in the extreme version. I like that part in the normal one. Look I'll take anything that makes our fights harder so people can stop saying XIV is a baby mode mmo. Tho I know extreme is a different beast anyway. I loved this fight and can't wait to get good enough to try the harder one. I'm scared to try if I'm being honest.

    I am fine with more difficulty in normal trials, but having one person fail the QTE and the whole group wipes because of it is a dumb mechanic.

    That kind of stuff can go where the sun doesn't shine.

    Maybe I'm dumb but I liked that part of the fight. It literally makes sure everyone is doing something to the max effect. I kindof want more things like that. Maybe not in QTE form but it does help people not be carried in content I think.

    I'm okay with a mechanic that requires everyone to be on point, but not that QTE garbage. It won't work with 1 button and it destroys my controller, disrespecting the players property. The QTE isn't difficulty in accordance of the game, so it's bad. It also disrespects physical disability for no reason.

    They can do better than that QTE, I know this after 4 years of savage and all the ultimates. Plus, I hate that QTE in general, not only for the harm on my controller and my arthritis/tendonitis but that they tend to force tanks to be "AFK" and not let them play the game. IT ISN'T FUN NOR INTERESTING. Please quit that noise.

    I'm sorry then. :c I feel bad now cause I generally liked it. Maybe not the QTE itself but the fact we all have to be on point. When I figured that out on day 1 my group was exploded cause at first we didn't know why we were failing. It felt so good to figure it out and now all my groups even with new babies in it never fail now. Maybe I'm just dumb but it felt really rewarding when I figured it out with my group. I felt proud :c. I haven't tried any extremes yet and never touched sav so it was the highest point in my career. So I got attached to it. And wish more of the game did things like that. Though I'm saying this as someone who's scared to touch higher end content so I guess I know nothing :c I want too though.

    Something else I found out just now though. It revives everyone if everyone passes the QTE before the second phase. Like so I didn't know that. so even if people dye before the QTE long as even one person makes it to that then everyone revives for mashing. That was a funny moment to be sure.

    That last sentence is why I don't appreciate the QTE in the trial. People of all intellectual and physical abilities play this game. Having a QTE where, should my physical ability limit my ability to mash a button fast enough, leads to a wipe, that just leads to frustration and an inability to progress the MSQ (luckily I was able to after the third wipe, but holy heck my wrist hurt).
