    If i96 WHM (Weathered Daystar, Cleric's, Allagan, Animus) is under geared.... sure. Assume away.

    Hating speedruns is different from not being capable of speedrunning.
    I'm capable, and have done them, but I hate them because of the stress associated with them and because I've run into way too many tanks and dps that fails at it.

    I'm playing to relax and have fun. I get enough stress at work.

    Even with all the other ff games, I've always went at a steady pace. Grinded a lot in between areas. Enjoyed the whole story. Didn't rush through the CS's. Talked to all the npc's in the games. Even through multiple playthrough's I always played that way and tried to 100% those games. Never did, but always tried.

    Even RE games, played um same way. That's how I've played all offline rpg's and other games all my life.

    It's just the type of person I am, and speed running forces me to skip parts of the map, and cs's. I know you can watch all the CS's in the inn, but it doesn't feel the same. Just like being ported directly to a duneon, instead of jornying to it with your party, but that's a different topic.

    Edit: Also during my prae run with the roulette yesterday, someone in the group said "This my first time" at the very beginning, and they still SR it anyways. Also I just started doing that roulette, and havn't done Prae in months. What happened with me was I forgot to click on the terminal and couldn't get the magitech armor on, so I went back but couldn't find it, plus mobs were still roming around up there. So I ended up just leaving Nothing at all was said at the part either, I'm surprised I was the only one that forgot to click on it. I have literally only done that dungeon 1 time before, but people just don't pay attention and assume everyones done it hundreds of times alrdy, but in my case that's not true.

    Hopefully next time I run it, i'll remember to click on that thing, guss you just gota learn from your past mistakes like in RL.

    unfortunately newbies are now the minority, and any community that runs itself democratically goes with the majority, if the majority speedrun, then the majority of players are happy speedrunning and businesses do well to try and keep majorities happy
