Keeping Content Hard and Helping People Learn

[Shistar]

It is made for some portion of the player base to clear, not me. And that's as it should be.

It is made for the average player to clear. It is okay to not be an average player, but if the devs had to account for every single player type, physical and mental limitation and preferences in existence, they'd either never release anything, or never make anyone happy. It is up to us to decide what we do with the content that is released.



Edit: That is why games like Animal Crossing and Dark Souls exist. The average player varies game to game, and if you find that you don't enjoy XIV or you feel like you are not up to the skill level it demands of its average playerbase, I don't see why you should torture yourself playing something that makes you feel this bad.
XIV's "average player" has changed over the years, and you have changed over the years. I understand it is upsetting to feel like you're being pushed away by a game you like. But it is truly their loss, not yours. For your own wellbeing, I hope you find better games that give you much more joy. Genuinely.
