Titan Extreme is NOT Fun

[Dale]

Every developer, honestly - almost every game ever released involves mechanics listed. Remember pits in mario games? Spikes in Megaman games? Yeah instant death mechanics aren't new, just people being overly sensitive to it now.

Not in RPG games they weren't. I played nearly all of the earlier Final Fantasy games and never once were their pits or deadly traps on the ground I had to quickly dodge or I died instantly. And if there was, they were very rare and certainly not at the core of the over-all game play as is the case here.

So you are right in the sense these types of mechanics aren't new. But they were typically found in action/platform games. They weren't found in RPG games. And if they are going to start trying to turn RPGs into wannabe action games, it's time they re-named them to action games. Because when I buy an RPG game that's not the kind of game play I am expecting or want.

They already have ARPG's, and I think that's what we've got here now. FFXIV ARR is an MMOARPG, I also wish they would just call it such and advertise it as such. I'm here for now, I'll be around for awhile, but I am not deeply in love with it.

At least the bad players in the game who love to have excuses about the cheap mechanics can't fall to such nonsense this time around. I expect crybabies to flat rage quit and unsubscribe from that alone. If you're not good to take down Extreme Mode content, you're not good enough and need to practice. Simple as that.

Stop crying, Titan Extreme is easy and fun. If youre shit and cant handle it then go practise until you CAN. Extreme modes are there cause we WANT challanging content, casuals/randoms who lack skill and gear should stay away from it until youve gained appropriate skill to beat harder content.

Or stay away from the content entirely. Last time I check, Extreme Mode is optional.

I'm confused. Is it easy or is it challenging?

Ouch, sorry but im not shit. I have cleared it, have cleared twin, and I realize this fight is still bs. Try not pulling the gear card next time.

Or simply "dodge" such harder content, if you get my meaning... :P

The reasons you dislike it is why I enjoy it. Yeah the mechanics are pretty much one hit kill, but Titan is on a tight rotation. Once you learn the pattern, you can do it without a problem. Even with lag you would be able to dodge hit attacks and know what to do.
