Difficulty of normal content.

[DanielleFarlow]

Yup, seems that instead of taking advices (even if they are passive agressive), all boiled down to "i am a victim of target harassement of big streamers".

Point is still simple - normal raids are not hard, but now actually require you to pay attention and actually play the game, like many of players actually wanted.

OP's concern is genuine and valid, but you don't need to ask developers to backtrack their changes. And the point of "hardcore players already have their content" is naive at best and hypocritical at worst.

OP's concern is genuine and valid

I actually agree with this and I'd say most would. It's fine if he's struggling. Hell I'd be willing to sit down and help if I came across someone who has genuine difficulty with this content. I do so on a daily basis with people.
The problem I see here myself is the attitude ? This belief that it's other people's fault, that this "difficulty increase" will harm the game, the shifting of his personal responsibility, the misrepresentation of people that disagree that the content is too hard, the lack of willingness to put in any effort, the way he speaks about how his only option is to get carried by others if he's gonna do at all... This is the real problem in OP's post I think.

Think if it was formulated with an open mind in a "I'm struggling and I'm looking for solutions, I feel the game is leaving me behind" way instead of an authoritative statement about how the game is too hard now and it needs to be fixed, he would've never gotten covered by any of these streamers, and he would've probably been swarmed in game with people looking to help. Only genuine trolls would be here putting him down for that, and he'd be right to call them that.

If he was inclusive and empathized with my perspective, I would with his, but no, he chose to alienate people like me, and when you spit against the wind, well, you know. Personal responsibility, again.

This is such a nothing statement. You might as well write "thoughts & prayers", I don't know why you felt the need to add it to your post.

Sometimes people's opinions are not valid, especially when they stem from someone's active refusal to learn and improve.

Exactly, but I already went over it somewhere in, like, 10-20 page of this thread, so I don't expect anyone to follow this hellhole. I am talking about how OP is actively looking for a way to run away from discussion with "my point still stands", yet is still active on this thread, sad about the attention it garnered online and can't see the valid solutions behind people clowning on them (for the right reasons, but still).

My bad, guess it was poorly worded on my part, what I mean is that they should either learn, take up another type of content or quit. Their feeling are valid in these three choises, but not in actively making the game more braindead than it was before Dawntrail.
