Please do something about dps survavibility in OC

[IOwn92FCHouses]

Thats not proof, thats still n=1... n=1 is never proof unless the sample size is only 1. And yes, im aware that there are more players that can do that. But stating 'you can' because 'i can' is the worst case to use that example on. The actual sample size does indicate that the mechanics can be handled by the experienced player.

But content is normaly designed for certain players, and a certain reputation gets attached to it. OC is deemed casual content from the start, so you can expect a lot of casual players. Players that struggle already in normal trials. Its a huge enough portion of the playerbase. Yet if you ignore those players 'because inferior'... thats the worst possible way to think about it. Because content marketed toward them appears to be not well balanced towards them.

Players play games for fun. That is the key reason they play. And yet, plenty of players get anoyed because the fights cause dps's to repeatedly die over and over again. That indicates there is an issue regarding fun in the content. And the reason: they get to hear the content is targeted for them, only to face it actualy isnt. And if they then say its not fun, it simply is not fun.

No matter how many arguments you throw at it, you cant change the 'its not fun' part. Instead, by stating 'git gud' you are making the situation worse. You can argue as much as you want about it. You cant stop them thinking that way. You can at most cause those players to quit the game. Which in the long term is actualy the worst possible outcome. Because if that happens too much, you will lose the game you like. You still rely on the less skilled players to make money. Because otherwise they could just grind the content themselve.

Re-read the op. Nothing you're saying matters in the context of the thread. New players do not matter. Your assumed target group for the design does not matter. Your random tangent about "fun" does not matter. I'm responding to the premise of the thread. Refresh yourself on it. You just wasted your time typing 4 paragraphs of nothing.

Let me know if you need assistance doing so.
