I don't use bots lol, lmao even.
You could say this to anyone for any reason. why do people stick around when they suck at normal trials? its none of your business but they do stick around. so, i think it's rude for you tell people just leave.

Of topic I know but I am actualy one of the people leaving, 7.2 just showed the Devs intent in what direction they want to bring the game and I am not onboard, I spend the remaining gametime I have helping a friend power through Eureka but once my playtime runs out I will not return.

Hate to break it to you, but the JP audience isn't the golden land that you think it is.

Dawntrail media tour build had Sage with AOE Dot that could be stacked with the single target dot. The most probable reason why this was removed is because, believe it or not, JP players complained about it. Something they also want is the ability to extend healer Dot duration to 60s by pressing it twice so they can "focus more on other things without forgetting about DoT uptime" or something like that.

I also unironically read about JP players complaining about Energy Drain on Scholar again and want it removed because apparently, some JP players take Energy Drain optimization to a ridiculous level and basically refuse to use Aetherflow on healing/mitigation skills.

JP playerbase really isn't the promised golden land. They got their own issues.

I think he's being sarcastic.

There is absolutely zero reason to keep the 3 button combos in 3 separate buttons. EVEN PVP has a one button combo to reduce the bloat, I have no idea why it's not in pve. The illusion of doing something, the game doesn't have a deep enough system of builds, talents or anything to build interesting stuff or test out rotations, so why bother with the illusion at all? Just reduce the button bloat already and stop pretending.

Without considering that combos used to make sense since they ALL had varying branching patterns to various degrees in the past, and now they don't anymore for most of them making them an actual question, I do believe they keep it like that because the game is literally conceived as you, the player, playing a music instrument where each encounter is a different piece of music.

Unfortunately, Reinhardt isn't being sarcastic. I've seen some posts from the JP side saying they want expert dungeons to be braindead so they can eat their food and run it at the same time.\

Edit: Its not a big deal, but yes, people want to relax or be lazy across the world. Should a game allow it in certain content is subjective and completely up to the developers.

It's not just JP. I've seen it plenty enough on the western side that players tend to do the content with something else on the second monitor. They don't even consider XIV like a game, it's just a filler to keep their hands busy.

If you meant me, sadly not. If you meant the person I replied to, possibly yes - but I couldn't pick up on the sarcasm if there was on so I treated it like a normal comment.

Final Fantasy XIV already has user-supported auto-rotation. It even has auto-mechanics. You don't have to do anything in an instance anymore, thanks to Square Enix and their policy towards user tools. FFXIV will always be more casual-friendly and disability-friendly in that regard. And Square Enix likes users being able to do this. Thanks, Square Enix!

Watch it happen then, people would new excuses then for being just bad, even a 1 button rotation would change anything if people arent able to press this button in time without delaying anything...

While I always support improving games accesebilety so even people with bodely limitations can enjoy them, this should always be and option and be forced as the norm.
Give everyone the tooles to compete for the same goal and do not lower the goal line.
For how design seems to be currently handeld for Jobs the Devs aim for it beeing so simple and streamlined that even the biggest idiot can do them without having to think, and I am a hard beliver in the phrase that, if you make the world Idiot proof the world will make a better Idiot.
