Risk Factor. Can I have it?

Right and that's all well and good except Demon's Souls was created specifically for a hardcore audience who likes being mercilessly punished apparently. Final Fantasy XIV was not created with the hardcore audience in mind and even since Yoshida has taken over has continued to cater to a more casual audience than FFXI. If you want a really hardcore game, FFXIV is not it and I don't think it ever will be.

LOL the biggest casual gamer I know even played demon souls and loved it!~ there for hardcore mechanics can work in a casual game ^.^
He also thinks this game is way easy. Even though he doesn't like to put effort into it.

Okay, good for you. You know someone who likes the game. Doesn't change the fact that this game was not created with a hardcore audience in mind.

That's not to say we don't need more difficult content, however timesinks and masochistic death penalties do not equal difficulty. More challenging mob AI, longer fights and fights that require strategy and thinking are difficult.

This game is ment for casuals, you said it yourself, they cant add hard stuff!~ aka more challenging mob AI

In an mmo, you can't have two polar opposites. You can't go easy/hard, people will complain and they will bump the hard down to normal/easy. You can have hard and exrta hard, or easy and medium. In the end one group has to be shafted ^.^. Also, if you are playing an MMO you can't complain about time ^.^ if you don't have the time, an mmo is not for you.

Don't go sticking words in my mouth, casual players can handle difficulty. I consider myself a bit of a casual player and I fully welcome difficult fights. I do not, however, welcome wastes of my time due to masochistic death penalties, obnoxiously stupid lock out timers and the like.
