The issue your friends are facing is not an issue of 'Casual' versus 'Hard Core'. I think perhaps they might be expecting it to be too easy (especially as you seem to suggest, they do not really play).

But yes, if they really want no-think-no-plan-no-gear-super-simple-win then their best bet is to NEVER try any content when it just comes out. Wait for others to figure it out, post their videos and strategy guide, then go on and give it a try.

We should realy be careful about creating this divide. It's almost as if:
Casual(n): Expects to to instantly win with almost no effort.
Hard-Core(n): Not Casual.
Not to mention her friends is only a Small Portion of FFXIV.. ( which maybe 2-3 people) That are whining because The "Final Boss of FFXIV, in which in every other FF game a Final Boss isn't no Push Over" <---- Assuming this is the Final Final Boss... Since their is still more story to tell in the 7th Umbra Era Content. Final Bosses has to have some sort of Difficulty to it..
