the normal content is too easy

[Ronduwil]

I think this is a well known problem that the devs choose to ignore. For some reason, this game's past content caters to the lowest skilled player, like the bottom of the bell curve player who's completely new and never played an mmo before.

They didn't choose to ignore it. They intentionally designed it that way. The "bottom of the bell curve player" spends just as much on their monthly sub as the top of the bell curve player. Making content for both ends of the curve is a wise decision. The bottom of the bell curve doesn't enjoy extreme and savage raiding, and that's OK. The top of the bell curve player may be bored with the MSQ fights, and that's OK. To each their own.
