Difficulty of normal content.

[SamLeens]

..They are challenging to get through without making any mistakes and maintaining full uptime, though, and that's where the fun comes in. .. But if you want to actually contribute to a clear, it's about damn time the game asked for SOME effort.

ill stick with it. maybe the player paid for level and story skip, or (ill quote you here) "Like all other casual content in this game, you can just shunt responsibility of a clear onto someone else."
Fun is not objective. whats fun for me may be torture for you.

I'm sorry to hear you're depressed and you have attention issues, but I am also depressed and have attention issues (see my last post). That is not an excuse for game designers to cater to the lowest common denominator.

And im sorry that you are also suffering from it.
Ive never said something about the game designers. i mean my occupational therapist said that ff14 is very suitable for working on my concentration and attention deficits. Of course, "everything only to a healthy extent".
i even said that i dont like the insta death mechanic in the dungeons but i want to keep them.

Also, if this forum is for venting....why am I not allowed to cent back? I'm frustrated with entitled casual players who do not bother to put in a modicum of effort, so I'm ranting about it. Why the double standard?

Venting is one thing but you make fun of the frustrations of others. Do you think it helps if you tell someone how wrong they are and that they should just put more efford into it?
Let's say you have a problem and tell a friend about it. The friend then tells you that your problem isn't a problem at all because it's ridiculous to them.
And now imagine he thinks a bit different and says: ‘It doesn't look like a problem to me, but i accept that its a problem for you.’

... The healing kit is the exact same, and the card system has had all variance and complexity taken out of it.. You can say the class is difficult, but I can also say you're wrong. I've played AST for years, I think I'd know by now how it feels.

for you its "piss easy", but not for me. thats a fact and im okay with it.

Ultimately, if you are caught off guard by the raise in difficulty from EW to DT and your first reaction is to go on the forums and complain about how everything is just too hard and needs to be changed... Then ultimately, yeah. I think maybe this game isn't for you.. .. This is level 100. If you've made it this far, this should not be a challenge.

ive never said that the difficulty is too much for me. i dont mind it.
i just wanted to say that you can't expect others to have the same opinion as you and that i can't play the ast bc im overwhelmed with the cards, healing and dmg. my attention span is simply too short and i quickly lose track of things.
