IDK where that "we end up pressing only 1111111111" comes from, its not like anyone wants everything in one button but some combos would make space and things easier - I cant count how many times i messes cause my controller or game lagged and didnt swich the layer or didnt register an button, fun on RDM.... which brings me to the next point, i wished some skills would only work if their combo is done properly...
I play with keyboard and one of those 12 button mmo mice, and I’ll occasionally mess up a combo due to inadvertently having my thumb slightly too far one way or the other, and fat fingering the button next to the one I’m aiming for. I’d imagine occasional misclicks probably happen to most people. Personally I am for consolidated combo buttons. I’m in the faction that doesn’t feel pressing 123 makes for any more challenging, in depth, or complex gameplay than pressing 111. Consolidation will only free up some space and de clutter hotbars, which to me is a good QOL adjustment. People will make occasional accidental mistakes with either system, so I don’t see “but my muscle memory” as a legitimate counter argument. People could just map the button multiple times if they are really dead set against change, but I think the vast majority would quickly get used to the new way and in fact feel they’ve been benefitted. They are always slightly changing things up, and people always adapt to the new way, and move on. To me, there is no way de cluttering could be considered a net negative.
