Dodore over nerfed(and other nms too)

[Shiyo]

SE, why did you nerf already easily 8 mannable NM's, AND add a 10% acc/HP buff to 8 person parties? Dodore is a complete joke now, he has THREE adds instead of the 7-8 he had before, and a ton less life. Why? How simple are you trying to make this game? Do you guys not know how to adjust difficulty properly or something? Or are you trying to make things as easy as possible?

I don't get it at all, there is no reason to nerf such easy NM's and add a buff on top of it. This game just gets easier and easier every patch, what is our target audience here?

Making a game too easy will not attract more players and not make the game better or more casual, it'll just make people quit from BOREDOM. Please stop making things so easy, we want challenges, this game has none.

Edit: I'm level 48 and calling these things easy...lol.

Ehh, We just fought the Great Buffalo last night with our usual group of 7 or 8 and it wasn't any easier.

Shiyo you were told in the other thread that this could be resolved after they rebalance the battle system and stats, why do you have to start another thread just to whine ?

[Evangela]

the dev team don't even know that ppl can solo/duo/trio on NM's since the previous version

Yes, it can be. EXCEPT! They nerfed a NM that was ALREADY EASY and added a 10% acc/hp buff..........that just blows my mind. Like I can understand things being MECHANICALLY easy, but making things easier ON PURPOSE and adding a 10% acc/hp buff is inexcusable, sorry.

edit: I can also understand the 5/10% hp/acc buff being for future content, but how do you also nerf the NMs? lol? It just doesn't make sense, it just further proves they intend for this game to not be challenging.

If square made the game have challenges half the casual community would rage they do not have time for something like that... see any mainstream mmo out there. (look how many people are rage quitting wow because of cataclysm making it too "hard"....lolz)

I think this is basically the future of MMOS now, honestly in many ways the whole videogame genre. Easy, simplistic, overly rewarding, solo focused, and short uninvolved activities. Everything that defined a mmo casuals tend to hate... so the chances of the genre having any bit of challenge or in-dept gameplay is pretty much out the window.

The MMO era is over. You have the online rpg era and the MSO(massive soloplayer online game) now.

I love you <3 I always agree with everything you say, every single word! ^-^

Yes, it makes me sad, I say that all the time about video games. It makes me so sad, I might have to quit video games ;_;

I DO NOT want to solo! Solo is boring! I hate soloing, I play MMOs for teamwork and partying and playing with other players, its STUPID that they want to encourage soloing! Sigh >_< I want challenging party based teamwork based gameplay.

I dont think its that bad at all, I'm sure SE have plans for hardcore content but they aren't going to add it until PS3 or an expansion, why would they when nobody is paying for the game right now.

Welcome to the new era of MMO.....

I really hope SE are doing these things only because the game is in a rebalancing moment...

But im really worried about that..

Even before 1.17P all NM was practicable with a pt of 8 players...

meh..

Why do you think this? They add content for level 50's then make it a complete joke. I don't think they're ever going to add challenging hardcore content tbh.
