Less scripted fights more online engagement

[Tunda]

The reason fights in FF14 is structured is not only because the fight is structured, it's because the whole system is structure. The strict and long rotation, combo breaker, melee positional, 2 minutes burst window and DPS check that requires certain level of optimization ... none of that lend itself to a random fight even with zero ping. You'll need a much more nonrestrictive and free flow combat system to allow freestyling fight.

In short: they will need to change not only the fight design, but the whole system of the game. In another word: not gonna happen.

we didn't request hard changes in the game..

we ask for baby steps.. just make things have life.. let bosses have decision making.. everything feels scripted dull and unplayable for more than few times

You already have baby steps, fights are no longer 100% exactly the same but have some random element like phase order in them now, and even THAT isn't always popular when it mess up things like 2 minutes window.

What you are asking for is not baby steps just because you're thinking it's baby steps. That kind of change is not minor and will require large structural change no matter how much you wish otherwise.

Nobody said you can't or care. Just informing you how unreasonable your request is. And if you don't care about that ... well, sometime shouting pointlessly into the void does make people feel better. So have fun.
