    Im not the one who harps on savage needing to be made easier, and i said that because i'm annoyed at how i can make serious arguments about how difficulty might affect the playerbase in harmful ways and end up talking to a brick wall who doesn't get PEOPLE QUIT OVER THIS. And i don't care about how raiders need to justify their not toxicness, i'm also annoyed because everytime they talk on forums, they always are talking crap about how easy the game is and how they HAVE to change it for whatever reason, whether its forcing parsers and the whole fflogs culture on the playerbase, or upping casual content's difficulty despite the game actually working; raiders can do savage and others don't need to.

    I push back hard because i played hard mmos, and no it doesn't solve anything to make the leveling experience harder. you just wind up getting the players out of the game entirely, not boost endgame participation or skill. And the harder you make it, the more raiders will complain because it's never enough for them; we had people say git gud on forums even with midas or gordias when they were relevant, and at one point on reddit they were talking about a JP style blacklist of players. if they make it harder, in two months the raiders will be back to complaining again that farm parties still suck and duty finder still has ice mages.

    As for arrogant, whatever. I don't like people who don't think deeply about the changes they propose and handwave or ignore bad stuff. i hate forum culture and how it reinforces bad idea or has no historical knowledge of their own game.
