Example. DPS does its part by dealing damage. The healer fulfills its role by replenishing health (and dealing damage). The size of the role of the tank is not so big in the end. Just pull mobs to do dps by hitting defensive abilities.

By taking away the role of pulling mobs from the tank, you are taking away what little fun is available to a person in this role.

Yes, they are not leaders. But we are talking about the game. We are talking about RPG. What is so bad if a person in the role of a tank wants to feel important?

I like to feel important as a tank. BUT. If I'm a healer, I feel that the tank is important and needs to be healed. If I am a DPS I feel that the tank is the one I should hide behind and deal damage.

RP guys. RP. Not your ERP lol. RP. Going into an uncharted cave will you put the healer at the front of the group? I doubt. I'm sure in any film there is always a man with a shield in front. Although....in the lord of the rings, Gandalf walked ahead heh. But I think this is more of an exception.

Don't know. I can't love the game. If it is not loved by those with whom I play it. I can't love fantasy where the party doesn't know how to play. PLAY. People hate DF so much and want to speedrun him. Terrible thing. Who knows if you do all the professions of level 90 you will become the same. But I sort of did ~6-7 and still enjoy the dungeons and can easily go through them slowly.
Pulling mobs is not a role.

Not everyone likes to RP.

Everyone in a party is important. Equialy.

If you don't enjoy the game - don't play it. Find yourself something else.

No one hates DF. People are tired from same duties playing this game for a decade. Dungeons are not engaging.

Explain "speedrunning". If you mean this from a standpoint of RP, then no, walking through a dungeon is not interesting to everyone.

Not everyone has a lot of time to play the game.

It's not astrophysics.
