    Totally agreed.

    The gameplay is pretty much one-hundred percent about individual accountability (conversely, WoW's gameplay is mostly about a group's collective reactions to things like damage spikes, boss movements, etc.). FFXIV asks a lot more of individual players to not trigger devastating (but also extremely telegraphed) mechanical counters - to, at a very essential level, 'know the fights.' If you don't do your homework going into these encounters and then wipe your team, that says more about you as a gamer than it does about the game itself.

    This is also along the line of thinking as to why we are not getting Mythic plus anytime soon as Yoshi P basically said the small group sizes plus accountability would be hard to design for so they are going with the bigger raids.
