And you're frustrated because it seems like no matter what, some people are so stubbornly set in their praise of such frustrating and boring features that they come off as being stuck in some sort of ancient way of thinking where dull grind counts as a viable feature. Like they don't want the game to evolve or support the meatier parts of the game and instead fall in favor with chewing on the bones.

From what I can tell.
Oddly enough, I actually love this patch. I get great xp, I always have a party because I'm in an awesome linkshell, and I've made tons of gil. Hell, I went from 47 to 49 and a half today alone and I spent the majority (easily 80% of my time in game) of my day doing Bowl of Embers Hard mode.

I'm just disappointed that lower level players have been left to figure it out and fend for themselves so to speak.
