    I am sure other older gamers like myself that have played FF14 since it was terrible are having a hard time clearing content to progress story, so please make the story not part of instances and raids as we all know by now that Square has no intention of making them like they were before " you know able to be done without having 20yr old reflexes". If you like that fast pace it's great too, all i ask then is have normal BE normal, with that mineself will not be buying the new expansion since all I do now is craft.

    What exactly are you struggling with? You can generally survive mechanics on a tank, you can do dungeons with NPCs, each wipe gives you an extra life with NPCs which mitigates dying and regenerates your HP.

    Solo duties can be re-entered with "Very Easy" mode that gives you Echo buffs, and again, tanks can survive things even easier. Especially Paladin or Warrior.

    With other players, someone can just resurrect you always. I see you listed here as a healer but obviously that would be an issue when you are the main person that can resurrect, so I'd suggest simply doing the story as a tank so you can get through it easier.

    What are you on about? I likely qualify as an "older gamer" and I find the story content too easy, not too hard.

    Game started 16 years ago so if you were 39 you'd now be 55 and probably have cataracts. This is not my age, just context. I also find the content too easy.

    Below we have a transcription of what Naoki Yoshi-P Yoshida said at PAX:
    - "For some players, like me, I kind of get sleepy because it's so repetitive."

    I think most people who come on these forums are more dedicated players. Unfortunately, due to that, most the responses on here will mention how the game is too easy (from my pov, I do also find it too easy). But that's not to say you're alone with that feeling. I guarantee there's a chunk of players who feel the same.

    Then again, I barely did any actual hard combat content this expansion. So in truth, I don't have a full grasp on DTs difficulty curve.
