It's okay to fail solo duties

It's not okay to fail solo duties - it interrupts the flow of the story. The idea that it's okay for the MSQ to repeatedly kill you is fallacious and toxic. It's not repeatable content; it's something that locks everyone out of every other piece of content until done and its main job is to deliver a story where dying repeatedly directly works against that purpose. Like think of every other normal Final Fantasy game, it's practically impossible to game over on the main story.

Wait until you hear how many times I had to repeat my fight against Yunalesca in FFX, with guides. (I had the printed official guide book at that time, and internet.) Even that random chocobo eater in whats-that-road's-name took a few attempt. And don't get me started with these 20 iterations of a fight against Seymor. And FFX was not the exception to the rule.

You are free to have whatever opinion about solo duties and how often it should or should not be ok to fail them. However, do yourself a favour and keep the other Final Fantasy games out of that, it just shows how little you know of other Final Fantasy games.

I'm sorry, what Final Fantasy games are you even thinking of where it's impossible to game over? Which ones have you even played? The difficulty of the DS remake of FF4 was so ramped-up that random encounters in the Tower of Zot would regularly wipe people.
