    Viper changes prove 8.0 will not add job complexity

    The new viper changes, namely the removal of the debuff which was the only thing about the class that required a minute bit of brainpower, proves that the devs will not be adding in any amount of job complexity or stress in 8.0 like Yoshi P claimed. Monk and Viper are essentially the same job now and They will simply cave to any amount of resistance if the even attempt to add complexity.

    They managed to make a class a lobotomised monkey could play by pressing the glowing lights and somehow that proved to be too challenging for players so they made it so that now even a dead monkey can play it.

    The change is minute but especially insulting after the outcries all across the forums against it, and the promise of job complexity in the future that is in direct opposition to their actions.

    Wuk Lamat = loss of quality. It's interesting how the declining state of thematic elements also mirrors a lack of talent in development. Are all their developers busy with Flopspoken 2?

    I thought they dissolved that substudio after that travesty?

    WAR don't get changes because they don't need changes. They only need more enemies to cleave.

    But did they fire the developers? I'd wager they're still working somewhere in Squeenix.

    I think today Viper proved why Summoner will never see any kind of depth again no matter how much we ask for it.

    RIP Viper 28/06/2024 - 30/07/2024. It was a fun month.

    Given the opportunity, developers will polish the fun out of a game.

    I foresee more jobs will have 1 button combo come 8.0.

    Cool, I don't want complexity, I want fun. Complexity does not equal fun.

    What's fun for you then? Pressing a single button over and over to hit a loot pinata and get your dopamine going? Just hit a slot machine then, its the same concept
