I don't see why fun and difficult have to be one and the same else you just have a game that plays itself. Even in my example the problem I laid out was twofold:

1. Fight length.
2. Nonexistant mechanics.

Point 1 is becoming an issue each expansion that redoes how damage works (direct hit, potency changes). Point 2 in my example refers to ifrits nail. Why are people so afraid of wiping even being an OPTION? This wipe like 8 years ago only occurred because we had a dps who wanted to act like a healer and thus caused failed dps checks. This is solved by dps doing the one thing they're meant to: do damage to the proper target (in this case the nail). Then you proceed to get hellfired and finish the rest of the boss.

Difficulty isn't the right complaint. There are more underlying issues.
