    All the changes from Shadowbringers onwards were absolutely unnecessary for accessibility, they didn't increase accessibility with those changes, they instead reduced skill expression significantly. Now we're stuck with 19 (soon 21) jobs with only 1 possible way to play without being wrong.

    I guess the only people who benefits from all this is the group of people who want to touch the ceiling without putting in the effort of climbing a ladder.
    Yeah, the over-concern for accessibility is bad, and accessibility is something no one complains about. No one says the game is hard to pick up, or too many jobs are difficult to pick up.
    This is in part because the game does not challenge you, so it does not teach you how to play the game. You don't learn how to play the game by playing it because they made it so easy. So people get to level 90 and get fully geared and raiders complain about the lack of healers, and specifically the lack of skilled healers entering savage.

    Yoship has actually also acknowledged the lack of healer participation in raids in endwalker. And also on top of this this raid tier has issues in itself too being unfun.
