I wish the game would focus on being for medcore players more.

UWU is probably not the best example for this. It used to be a proper difficult ultimate when it released, but years of job and potency changes have not been kind to that fight.

It's a bit of a meme when people say "X ultimate used to be harder in Y expansion" but it's not exactly wrong. Our potencies have only gone up across the board, even for low level abilities, jobs have become both more powerful and easier to play at the same time and newer gear allows you to hit stat caps when synced down that were just impossible in the past.

Wouldnt that make UWU the best example for this considering the discussion is about how accessible the content is?

I might've read that wrong, yeah.

Although while UWU is pretty accessible now, it's not really indicative of ultimates as a whole, or even UWU itself as it was intended to be.
I hightly doubt the devs ever planned to have older ultimates be that accessible, it's just a side effect of changes to the game and them not going back to adjust those fights.

You're probably correct though that you could clear UWU within a month nowadays, especially once you understand how most mechanics are just a remix of the same 8 or so basic mechanics.
