The game / company is pro-actively keeping the game "casual".
    Not sure if it's your intention or not, but you're helping prove the original point of the thread: that this game's old content is too easy.

    And "yet" people struggle with it. So is it easy or not? Cleaning or just making things consistent is not really a difficulty increase.

    WoW classic? Bring cleave group and mass pull an instance? If you look hard you may find someone that like 2h dungeon and pulling one by one.

    For me it's fine. They could update ARR stuff but not need to change the difficulty level of philosophy for dungeons and normal raids or trials as a whole. If there would be harder dungeons it should be a separate mode, not a replacement.

    ??? If you're proposing a fix like updating ARR stuff, then you're agreeing with this thread's premise that old content has become too easy.

    Not easy, outdated. If they replace old stack marker with current one the difficulty won't increase. If they make guildheist with modern mechanics and then make guildheists for current tiers as they are released then the difficulty won't change, more so people will train more often. If they redo CT series to have modern telegraphs etc then it won't get harder but maybe introduce players better to game mechanics and more end-game oriented instances.

    There is no point for larboard and lateral aureole on Gaius

    And if the game learning curve gets so much improved that "lowest common denominator" thinks the content is to easy only then you can think on making it harder.

    So let me get this straight. You're saying the game appeals mostly to the lowest common denominator?
