No not the QTE my friend. I even said you can change the QTE. The bite is the wipe mechanic. Please look at what I was saying completely and not react trying to shut anyone who doesn't agree with you please? :cIt's hilarious calling the QTE a bit of "ooofth" with "bite to it". If that's your idea of challenge, you don't want challenge at all. You want little pretend mechanics to feel like you beat a challenge. It's basically a free pass if you don't have a severe physical disability and removing it makes zero change to the actual difficulty of the fight in terms of mechanics.
Even the Doom at the start has more bite than the QTE ever will. If you want challenge ask for the Meteors or a version of Quintuplecast from EX or something.
I've personally never had a problem with QTEs when I swapped to just facerolling the keyboard, but I'm not gonna kid myself and say that I would miss QTEs if they stopped doing them in their current format.
Heck I'd like QTEs that take more than 1 brain cell, like Suzaku's intermission DDR or something similar to that effect, or some sort of aoe bullet hell while the boss swaps phases, or even something that requires you to use a duty action to deal with a certain mechanic.
Just something other than mash your face into the keyboard for 15 seconds
Which is the very part of the QTE that people are complaining about. Keep up.No not the QTE my friend. I even said you can change the QTE. The bite is the wipe mechanic.
Just because you missed a good part of the conversation, that doesn't mean other people are the ones that have to "keep up", pal. Maybe go back and read the rest of what everyone's talking about.
If you need QTE for it to feel challening then something is very wrong with your fight..especially a QTE with is just button smashing. The mechanic itself is not a challenge. Heck they could give the party a debuff if someone fails..there you have a punishment which could lead to a wipe without the huge consequences..also the rest of the fight is still challenging in some ways.This is sadden because so little content in this game has a bite and everyone wants to nerf it to the ground. I get the QTE. I agree changing THAT but I can't get behind taking that mechanic out. I just can't. I want it to stay cause it's nice having normal content have a bite.
I did, and my response is the same. Maybe you should check yourself before throwing around baseless accusations, "buddy"Just because you missed a good part of the conversation, that doesn't mean other people are the ones that have to "keep up", pal. Maybe go back and read the rest of what everyone's talking about.
All of the hand wringing over how great, necessary and appropriate a challenge the QTEs are makes me wonder why the players who champion them so hard don't seem to want them in other content. If the QTEs are so great, why not have them in Savage and Ultimate as well but tuned so hard so that you need professional esports levels of APM to pass them? I mean, they're a great way to add challenge to the fights, right, so why not ensure they're part pf the fights intended to be the most challenging?
Shh, don't insert rational thought into this! You'll make people's heads implode!All of the hand wringing over how great, necessary and appropriate a challenge the QTEs are makes me wonder why the players who champion them so hard don't seem to want them in other content.

What's rational about contradicting themselves on saying this isn't a challenge, on a thread complaining this is a challenge for some people?
