"In from the Cold" Scenario, any way to skip it?

Seriously?

This was one of the coolest instances the game has given me in a while, exactly because it was one of there very, veeeery rare ones that is not just braindead kill everything easymode.
The enemies have very predictable behavior and are basically blind when their back is turned, they only have 2 positions where they can go, and they stay in position for a long time. So its just a matter of taking a second to look where they are facing and planning your route accordingly.

I did it on the first try and I had to fight exactly 2 non-essential fights.

Though I have to agree on one thing, finding out where to go is not easy and really needs you to be lucky. I think I spend the first 5-10 minutes running around collecting Medipacks before I actually found the broken down Mech... The Soldier was easy to spot after that thanks to the big mark over his head, the fuel took a while.

After that, it was really just straigt forward easy mode, especially since I had alot of med-packs anyway...

There is no change in normal mode, only easy mode is going to be easy.

Alot of Gamers these days dont like any Challenge in their experience any more, huh? Kinda sad...

A lot of players are casual players and are not so much into challenge. Just think about why FF14 is so successful right now.
