4. can almost always be hit if played properly, even with less skilled other players

and 5. involve unique planning around True North and the like,

people still call them pointless. They just don't read what I say, so it becomes discouraging quickly. But I won't give up!
No to everything.
They add nothing at all....

You seem to think that you are a majority, which isn't the case. The majority hate FFXIV positional.

Also, if FFXIV postional was so damn good, dozen of MO would have them which... isn't the case at all.
On the majority of MMO postional are situational.... Mostly used by Rogue/Thief/Assassin llike class (Backstab while being cloaked) or, they have mostly CC attached to them.

FFXIV Positional are just plainly bad, useless and not fun at all.... Seriously, what the point of doing back and forth just for a measly 40 or 60 potency? Where is the fun in that? and especially since ALL the DPS have true North, a skill that cancel those positional (so it's clear that SE is aware how bad this gameplay mechanic is, and how annoyg it is)
If i want "action" on a MMO i will go play BDO.... But on a Tab Targeted MMO, positional always been rare and, like i said, were always tied to Rogue/Thief/Assassin like class or situational CC.

I never encountered discussion about positional, like the hundred we have on FFXIV, on any other MMO.... So i think you should start to wonder why.
