I can take criticism, but you don't see me hurling baseless insults starting a conversation like that. Moving on from that, I'm posting because I am sick of this game getting nerfed because people(The average player/not vet) complain.
It happens more times than it needed to over the last couple expansions now. Endwalkers raids got nerfed week 1 before some had a chance to even try them "as intended" If OP didn't finish the raid tier, thats sadly on them. M3 and M4 were imo my favorite 2 thus far and I cannot wait to do savage myself.
I get their frustration. To reach to the end of current MSQ, especially with Skydeeps final boss literally being a mini version of a previous savage(Don't want to say which for spoiler reasons respectfully), but to come out here and voice that only for us to bash the guy seems just... wrong.

I just think there has gotta be a better alternative. Bringing back Hard Dungeons would be a solution. If done the correct way, Would make the future MSQ a bit more enjoyable to veterans and new players alike. For example, The very first dawntrail dungeon. Have a (Hard) version of it and all the ones that follow until level cap. Doing either one progresses the MSQ, but doing the harder one grants more exp, items, and gil perhaps? Would make leveling in a harder dungeon more rewarding then mindless to a veteran and more challenging of an idea to the average player to attempt, however getting mad at one another or bashing OP or others opinions doesn't get anywhere. I merely leave this as a suggestion.


EDIT: I wanna bring up a point right now. Many are quitting because the game is too easy and too many nerfs. SE has avoided nerfing ultimates. I hard agree with them. However. Let me say this. Ucob, Nael quotes which for those that don't know that ultimate the boss will say the mechanics in chat and you gotta read them in real time. YoshiP and the Devs know this nael quote trigger was a horrible idea and yet they never changed it which I REPSECT THE HELL out of them for doing.

Now look at Dawntrails first trial with the red text dead in the middle of the screen TELLING YOU WHAT THE BOSS IS DOING. Imagine if SE went back and nerfed ucob with something like this. I would be greatly upset myself like OP for the opposite reason.

That wouldn't nerf UCOB btw.

Quotes already exist in Nael, Bahamut phase and Adds.

I think these quote bars would be a great QOL for UCOB.

Yeah, but YoshiP is against changing even that text. The quotes, Like how their done compared to putting them dead center on the screen. I havent touched Ucob in years, but I remember the quote was just a speech bubble and green text chat.
If it was changed from what it was, it's still a nerf. They changed the way the duty was intended even if its a QoL. If you remember TOP was bugged with healers dying immediately. They knew it was an issue and didn't fix it for sometime AFTER world first. (Which got cheated anyway.)

The last thing I wanted to say before I head out is there are YouTube guides to learn even normal dungeons and trials. YouTubers like myself and Streamers shouldn't be trashed on simply for giving input, guides, or feedback. I'm certain video guides for hector and mtqcapture helped many of you. However many outside this forum(Obv, You need a SE Service account to post so you do play.) that don't play only add fire to the community when it doesn't need it. Like for example, As I said earlier. Xenos clearing the first dawntrail dungeon without a healer. (I get it, He's a popular streamer.) I was soloing The Dead Ends as a PLD when it was current. I did Skydeep solo as a PLD aswell. It's a bit hard sure, but it doesn't mean a jobclass is useless and the whole community shouldn't go on strike over something like it either. Its not like TOP was done without a healer and yet we didn't have a healer strike over that, right?

Let's chill, wait for class rebalances while hoping for no nerfs. It doesn't hurt to listen to what I had to say either in my video. I'm not interested in a view count or subs either. The video as I said isn't monetized. I'm just complaining about other things in the game which just happened to coincide with this one. Again, This comes from someone playing since 2.5, I been playing for well over 9 years now. I love this game, wanna love the community. Sadly, All we do is fight rather than come up with solutions for devs.
