Yes really? Lets apply your logic...
  • Zodiark isn't more interesting then Hydaelyn
  • Endsinger neither vs Barbariccia
  • Eden Leviathan Savage worse then Titan/Eden's Promise
  • P2S water-dog-horse is worse then P3S / P4S both phases
  • P7S unironically even more boring then P6S due to optimization strats
  • P8S phase2 is less fun then P8S phase1 in every way
  • Rathalos EX better then Seiryu EX? really? like really? no really?
  • Wanna compare ARR Leviathan EX vs ARR Titan EX
Anyone wanna argue how Bismarck EX was the best Heavensward EX ever in thread cause its Carapace had no positionals? And unless you wanna name Dun Scaith's Deathgaze Hollow, every alliance raid with a boss that has no positionals isn't more interesting to me either.
  • Not Hobs and Engels vs TypeS
  • Not Puppets Bunker's 1st boss vs Mustadio
  • Not False Idol phase1 vs phase2
Trying to be more interesting? is not being more interesting. By your logic, lets not pretend just cause something has NO positionals that it somehow is more interesting either, cause it definitely wasn't for me.

Fun/Difficulty/Interests remains subjective. But Removing Positionals does not magically make Square fullfill an empty promise to replace it with something better in any way either. There's Zero proof... that positionals existing stood in the way of any fight design or mechanic ever being developed, mhm.
