Combat system is beyond saving.

It's not that they want people to quit, but they absolutely do not want expression of skill, and nor do they want players to feel like underperforming or failing are options. Which is a shame, because regardless of what they do people are always going to fail and underperform, whether this be on a skill-level, or just a level of outright lazy, and I will admit they have slowly been trying to actually compensate for lazy as well.

There seems to be a struggle discerning between actual difficulty behind something, and streaming versus just outright being lazy or uncaring for playing at even a fundamental level.

It's unfortunate because even on a casual level some of these things were fun to engage with and interact with, be it stance swapping or making aggro-management being a party-wide responsibility rather than individual responsibility. It made things fun everywhere.
