To this and your long written out post 'joking' post on page 7:

Also kk, I mis-read then, no need to be witty and rude about it.
Though I've seen posts before where they compared this game to a single players game.

You don't even know what you're saying.
The problem is he likes the way the game is currently and people are asking for it to change.
Re direct that at the people asking for face rolls.

Okay guys, I decided to take the argument of Casual vs Hardcore and make a reenactment of what I believe each game would become to its (il)logical conclusion. REMEMBER I'M NOT SERIOUS I'M JUST TRYING HORRIBLY TO MAKE PEOPLE LAUGH!

Making the Game Harder: SE eventually determined that the hardcore players were correct in their statements, and made A Realm Reborn: Prepare to Freddie, a complete revamp to the A Realm Reborn system and the gaming as a whole. After months of research and labor into what players thought was a challenge, all character levels were reset, and players were tasked with getting through the game once more. In ARR: PtDE, players leveled up in much the same way, but there was no enemy that did not aggro. If your character dies at any point, it will be permanently deleted from the system using FBI-level data scrubbing technology. There are also monsters that will surprise you with a jump scare if you are not keeping a careful eye on their positions, and you will instantly die. Chocobos from the porter were also susceptible to aggro. If you are struck while mounted, you will instantly dismount, and stare at the mount's corpse as it is scrubbed from your file. If you were using a chocobo porter's mount, you must pay 100,000 gil to pay for them to train a new bird, which will take several days, as well as having your mount privileges revoked until they are finished raising the new chocobo. As players finally reached the endgame, strategies were scarce as wipes deleted all players of your party or alliance. Auto-attack was removed from the game once more.

Making the Game Easier: SE eventually determined, based on feedback, that the game was too hard for the casual players. It was decided to once again rebuild the game from the ground up, and with careful research dedicated to what a casual player truly desires, released A Realm Call of Scrolls: Farmville Crush. The game was now Free-to-Play. Players were delighted to once again have many character customizations added back in, including the ever-popular butt slider, along with many new features, including a full pallete of 64-bit colors for every feature. Upon entering the game, you are placed in a permanent first-person view, and your weapon is shown on screen as if you're holding it. The moment that you attack the non-aggroing monsters of the game, you are brought to a screen where you are presented with a puzzle grid, which you must successfully win within a set amount of turns. You must match three symbols together. If you are unable to clear it within the set amount of time, you will be given the option to return to your home point, or purchase one additional attack for $0.99, five additional attacks for $3.99, 50 additional attacks for $149.50. Additionally, special events will come, allowing you to purchase an item to permanently double the total amount of attacks for $299.99. You must tend to your chocobo every twelve hours, else it will become sick and unable to aid you. More special events will come that will allow you to purchase a permanent chocobo health kit that keeps your chocobo in perfect health for $99.99. There are no experience points, so you can access every dungeon and raid as soon as you are able to access them. You can purchase access early for $0.99-$29.99. To win against these fierce foes, you must gather a team of adventurers to journey into the dungeon, with 4-man dungeons requiring 3/4 players, 5/8 players, or 18/24 players to successfully complete their puzzle. Upon winning, everyone receives a piece of armor suited to their class from a list presented. Stats will determine how much damage each type of puzzle tile is worth.

Dont they have plans to even out the content in 3.0 better? Alexander is the new "Coil" and it will have a "Story Mode" and a "Hard Mode" (Possible extreme mode like the primals?) Also, why are people bitching about "content getting easier" isnt that kind of how MMO's evolve? better gear comes out, game gets easier. Content becomes older and less relevant, dev's reduce difficulty for those wanting to get it done. As for current coil and how it has changed, this type of MMO is new for SE and they are still finding their groove, which is apparent based off the addition of echo, tweaks, and the new approach to Alexander.

Regardless, I don't think Neo Bahamut is coming down to re-destroy Eorzea again so the devs can remake the game for the hardcore. Like Miles said, it's been 2 years, this is the game for better or worse. Nothing major will be changing any time soon.

Why is there so much hatred?
This world is already cruel enough.
It is so hard to find a smile, a caring touch, love.

Don't we learn in our adventures, that we should reach out to one another?
Extend an arm, offer help, show understanding.

"This game is for casuals". Well, why can't it be for hardcores as well?
Why do casuals want to hog all the content to themselves?
Why do casuals want hardcores to suffer?
Shouldn't hardcores get to enjoy the game too?
Will it kill the casuals if hardcores get their challenging content?

Please show understanding.
Eorzea is such an amazing, magical and beautiful world.
We all should get to enjoy it. We should all get along.
We're all here to forge our own stories and gain experience, make memories.
Whether it be casual or hardcore.

"easier", not "more easy"
