I can't find the fun in this game any more

[Valkyrie_Lenneth]

Remember how much fun Dun Scaith was on day 1? How every job was actually hard to play and had dots to manage and the combat mechanics were actually interesting and engaging?

Ahh yes, the days where every job had a dot on a 30 sec cd which you just pressed whenever it was up. So engaging and difficult.

I wouldn't say jobs were more difficult back then. They were just not very intuitive and annoying. DRG in 3.x was one of the worst iterations of the job, outside of it getting 1-shot by raid wides in coil because of low mdef.

Mechanics weren't that much more interesting either. It's just that the game was still fairly new so mechanic types hadn't been exhausted yet.

You'll note many mechanics were still donut/away from boss aoes. Tank busters. Towers. Stacks/spread. Knock backs. Prox aoes.

I love dun scaith, but its difficult because people just don't learn. Not because it was hard.
