Why do people avoid getting better at the game?

Why do people not realize that they get better at the game after playing it for a long time. Things aren't going to keep getting harder to keep up. That would make the game impossible for new players. It's like you won't be happy until Sastasha has ultimate mechanics in it since you'd say everything else is too easy.

Difficulty is relative. Stop forgetting this.

Why do people keep bringing up Sastasha, when we have a perfectly good Aurum Vale to reference? lol
Or Wanderer's Palace (Hard)

You're all also talking about bosses, but we're not comparing Trials here, we're comparing Dungeons. You're forgetting about half of the whole experience. You know, the walking forward and being mindless?

And past 64, if you have an RDM then your party just never dies. Wiping in a dungeon these days is basically unheard of with the kits we have, and the trash certainly never got harder. They choose your pull count now.

Actually yeah, someone go do Wanderer's Palace (Hard) synced, come back and let me know if it was easy and if you had fun.

Then why is it that in FFXIV you can be max level and have literally no idea what you are doing? This game requires only very very little of the player to progress through the story which is the only true required content of the game since so much is locked behind doing it.


You don't necessarily get better playing a game the longer you play it. You can not improve or even regress in some cases. 14 shows perfectly how you can complete an entire campaign comprised of the base game + 4 expansions of story and still fail basic tutorials on gameplay.

Every msq dungeon and trial teaches the player of mechanics that they'll encounter in the optional content, where they amp up some of them while still sprinkling new things. But the job of knowing the familiarity of the mechanics is all the game should push you into understanding how harder content works. I dont believe you that you encounter players so bad that they constantly make mistakes. Ive been playing this game for quite a while and its very rare for me to encounter atrocious level of gameplay from your average casual.

I dunno man. I've got some pretty atrocious luck when it comes to random groups. I only started tanking because of the inordinate amount of people I run into whose brains don't seem to have enough RAM for them to perform combos and breathe at the same time.
