How games can have less scripted encounters

[NekoNova]

If they weren't as strictly scripted as they are, you might have to actually react to what the boss is casting or doing. Can't have that, it's too complicated for the playerbase that thinks mashing one button is a sufficient gameplay loop.

Or people with higher latency
Or disabilities
Or older people that simply can't react fast enough


God forbid they play the game as well.

That is why failing mechanics is generally not punishable on the first miss - You get a few 'passes' until those result in instant defeats.

Currently it's around 2 or 3 passes until you die

I don't mind if it is 5 or 6 if it was random

We just need to have a mind to think not only to remember what is the current phase

We are not asking for dark souls like reaction time or iframes but we ask for something fresh

If they game has issues then fix it, you have enough money from endwalker and you spend it on lighting engine.. gameplay is as important as graphics

The Main Story is as balanced as it is, and coming over rather forgiving. Each MSQ Dungeon/Raid (aside the last) can be done with Trust NPC's.

For anything else, there are raids and alliance raids. Which are completely optional, but come with a higher difficulty and coordination requirement.
