I still prefer with 1.23 had.

ARR and current combat is just to spammy and lacks weight or real choice / decisions. It's just the same base rotation fight in fight out. And the strategy for every boss is essentially the same..

Outside if maybe a few ground telegraph's or something bosses are basically just giant striking dummies for you to flail away at..

Makes no difference is the boss is a big dragon or giant robot the strategy and rotation is always the same..

So etimes I wonder if that's why so many people are so bad. Because when it's so bland and lifeless there's no engagement in it so just mash keys rather than actually engage with and make choices.
