Game is in a desperate need of challenge.

[Doo]

I agree, content should be designed to be challenging. However, if you honestly think that there has to be some reward at the end of it, then you are only proving my point. You don't want the challenge, you want the trophy for beating said challenge. The only thing a trophy is good for is showing it off and hoping for awe from others. If it was for your own satisfaction you wouldn't need the trophy.

Nope, wanting to be rewarded fairly doesn't mean you don't want a challenge. It doesn't have to be one or the other. Not sure why it's hard to understand, it's the same in all console FF games when you do challenging content, you get rewarded with the best gear.
