Difficulty of normal content.

[EponaTBHSMH]

Want I want, what I really, really want is:
-More standard telegraphs than custom ones, like the previous expansions.
-Simpler and better telegraphed overlaps, like the previous expansions.
-Slower resolution particularly when there are multiple stuff happening at the same time, like the previous expansions.
-Less headless chicken run mechanics.

People that like this new difficulty call it "exhilirating" or some such, I call that "stressful". The same people call the old difficulty "snoozefest", I call it "chill". I don't like "stressful" content that's why I don't extremes or savages anymore, I like "chill".

My point is that people that like "exhilarating" content and not an "snoozefest" do have content that fit that requirement, it's called extremes, and savages, and ultimates, etcs.
But until previous expansion people like me that like "chill" and not "stressful" had content to do, it was dungeon and normal trials and normal raids. DT changed that, one too many dungeon bosses are on the stressful spectrum, so are normal trials and normal raids.

I had a place in this game and now I don't feel like I do anymore.

Would it be okay for you to learn all this non standard stuff and make them your new "chill"?

I did had to learn all these mechs to beat said fights (particularly because I ran dungeons with trust and if I die it's insta wipe) but that doesn't make it any more "chill". One does not choose what bothers oneself, it just does.

I don't completely agree with that, when something bothers oneself, you do things to make said things not bother you anymore or at least mitigate it to make it bothers less.

I'm pretty sure a couple of the mechanics you've encountered before Dawntrail have been stressful at first, unless you consider the transition to Dawntrail to have been really that steep?

I'm not really sure what type of content you run now that you've cleared all these MSQ dungeons, but its very possible that this type of content becomes more relaxed for you if you run them more, and get used to them

Actually, you literally can choose what bothers you. You can choose to sit and stew in it or let it roll off your back. FFS...
