Anybody else got tired of scripted fights?

[Hatfright]

Video Games in general is about learning patterns.

I don't doubt that, but Absurdity here gives a good point about it:

I think what most people mean with scripted fights in XIV are the fights where you can determine exactly at which minute/second into the pull the boss is gonna do xy mechanic and it will always do this mechanic at the exact same time.

And this is exactly my issue with it. This and almost every mechanic being about positioning. There is position mechanics that I like, Tsuky moon stacks are my favorite, but for the most part it's "don't stay here, you either die yourself or/and drag your whole party with you". And there's no way around it at all, you just have to dance with all those aoes. But how much more fun it would've been if there was a way to stop that aoe dance and to replace it with something else, like healcheck or something, idk. I wish we got more players responsibilities beyond just moving ourselfs from place to place. I wish we could deny bosses their abilities not by just burning their hp down.
