I think they mean both. And I kind of have to agree.

This game allows players to just smash their faces on their keyboards for so much content that the second anything challenging appears, they completely fall apart. A lot of them also don’t want to listen to the directions and explanations mentors try to give them. As someone who has done ARR and HW extremes via Mentor Roulette, even getting the new players to do simple things like stacking Nidhogg’s Ahk Morn marker or not pointing Ravana’s OT cleave towards the entire party is extremely difficult. People seem to also carry around this mentality of “oh, it’s old content so I can just throw my keyboard against the wall and still clear”. Which, I mean, the game helps perpetuate. However, that doesn’t always fly. Old extremes certainly aren’t what they were at release (the easy ones and the harder ones), but they still require a bit more thought than I think some players are willing to give them. Especially sprouts that seem to think they’re probably just another “Hard” Mode.
