          >Games are for fun
          Yes, doesn't mean I can't go for these hard to get achievements and not have fun as well.
          Here's an example, I used to play WoW a lot until about Legion.
          I didn't care much for raiding, but I loved collecting Toys and Battle pets.
          I kept bragging to my friend about them and every time we played together I kept fricking around with my toy collection, even getting him to accompany me to get some of the harder ones to get.
          He gave no shit about it and sometimes even rolled his eyes at me but I still loved every second of it.
          I still fondly remember me convincing him to farm that one elite mob that spawns on the same island as the mechanical spiders and him.
          And me convincing him to farm the Molten Core raid like 20 times so I could get the Hate spark battle pet only for him to get it, learn it to make me seethe and for him to give it to me like 2 months later.
          All those mileheads to get to the 300 and 400 toy and like 600 or 700 unique battle pet achievements that I kept showing him when I got them.

              Parses really only mean something in 1 instance: when everyone has about the same level of gear.
              So that would be week 1 when no one has the new gear and several months in when everyone has maxed gear. Otherwise it's largely determined by your gear, rather than how optimal you play.

              At least in XIV you get tokens to work toward exchanging if you don't end up winning the drop

              The amount of pity tokens you need is still insulting, especially with how long the lockout lasts.

          Higher dps makes most fightes much easier and tanks usually dont need much gear to tank if they are decent at their job.

          Higher dps = fights end faster, a lot of mechanics get easier and you can even skip mechanics or transition/kill bosses before a problematic overlap of mechanics happen.

        you can restrict it based on solo content, and in fact that can make it MORE restrictive if they properly scale the solo content to be far harder than the group content, since you can't carry someone in solo stuff. MMOs should functionally be the opposite of what they are now, group content should be for easy gearing to reach the baseline for the solo content, then the solo content once you've maxed your gear out on the raidshit should be something only 0.1% of the playerbase can clear for all the cool shit. doing this, it would even mean more because again, you can't carry solo achievements and gear.

                That's not bad design. The explicit design of group content in mmos is that people have to work together to complete it. I understand that you're autistic loners who are incapable of working with a group but that's the entire point of these types of games. Saying that the rarest gear in a explicitly multiplayer game should come from solo content is beyond moronic.

                I realize that your experience playing mmos is being in some garbage-tier guild made up entirely of shitters but high level endgame content is very cutthroat and there are a huge array of data parsing addons to make very sure that everyone is pulling their weight. I haven't played mmos in a while but when I did I parsed just fine and so did everyone else in my guild, because that's how you get server/world first clears.

                fun is not a buzzword, I enjoy single player RPGs and solo progression viable online games, and have for over 35 years now. I have tons of fun replaying old JRPGs. I have enough of a content backlog to last the remainder of my life even if another game never comes out, because I enjoy older games so much I replay them many times per decade, I will never run out of content, meanwhile you MMOcucks are stuck on the devcycle treadmill eternally waiting for more content that is designed to force you to carry deadweight players because "everyone has to be a winner".

                This shit is so weird. It's ok to admit that certain game genres aren't your thing. I absolutely hate RTS games but I don't spend my time whining about how they should be changed to suit me better; I just don't play them.

                >content that is designed to force you to carry deadweight players
                And once again, there is no room for dead weight in high end competitive raiding. If you can't keep up then you get dropped, simple as. But this is very rarely a problem as people who aren't competitive and competent won't get past the interview process in the first place.

                my group cleared turn 5 coil pre-nerf, which only about 25 other groups in the entire world were able to do. even that group had a female we were carrying in it.

I have been in cutting edge prog groups, and I have been in shitter groups, and unfortunately they were not as different as you are claiming. unless you someone get the stars to align and find an entire group of complete no lifers like yourself you are going to be carrying at least a couple people, and even more unfortunately, the content is DESIGNED to be cleared by a non-optimal group, you can even do carries in ultimates in XIV which should just be completely off the table and only a group of 8 98%+++ers should even have a 1% chance of clearing after a month of 12+ hours a day attempting it. why wait for the stars to align, when you could just get a comparably difficult solo fight where you can progress at your own rate and eventually, ENTIRELY ON YOUR OWN MERITS and not reliant at all on other shitters, clear the hardest content?

                Because if you're good then anything solo is pathetically easy compared to group content. The only real difficulty in games comes from either cooperative group content, which is by the nature of its design (having to work with/rely on others) more difficult than solo content, or competitive multiplayer content, which has effectively infinite difficulty, limited only by the skill of your opponent. Single player games are complete jokes when it comes to difficulty.

                No it shouldn't you degenerate.

                >i deserve a participation trophy!!
                No, you really don't. The golden age of mmos (now long past) was when the best gear and content was only experienced by a minority of players because the difficulty was tuned to the point that it was literally impossible for average people to accomplish. You don't like that idea because you're an average person, but don't worry, people like you are now the majority and every game caters to you with endless welfare loot in exchange for simply existing.

                sounds like a dev team issue, they are too afraid to make actual difficult content because babies want their participation ribbon for "clearing" endgame raids. you can absolutely make solo content that is harder than raid content, but everyone is too casual to try it because even baby shit like malenia takes them dozens of hours to clear.

                What I'm telling you is that there's no such thing as difficult solo content unless you get into the realm of artificially difficult shit like extreme platformers or bullet hell games that require you to essentially memorize game patterns to beat them because they're too fast or complicated to be cleared via reflexes alone.

                If you want difficult content in a mmo then play pvp content which is as difficult as your opponents are skilled. But expecting a genre specifically built around group content to pander to you with solo content is weird. The devs don't make solo content because people don't come to mmos looking for solo content. Go sit alone and play some single player games; frick knows there are enough devs shitting out "omg so difficult soulslike" games.

                fun is not a buzzword, I enjoy single player RPGs and solo progression viable online games, and have for over 35 years now. I have tons of fun replaying old JRPGs. I have enough of a content backlog to last the remainder of my life even if another game never comes out, because I enjoy older games so much I replay them many times per decade, I will never run out of content, meanwhile you MMOcucks are stuck on the devcycle treadmill eternally waiting for more content that is designed to force you to carry deadweight players because "everyone has to be a winner".

                The real problem is that the quality of the experience has gone down over time in long-running MMOs. They should honestly charge less since the product is no longer worth what it once was.

      Tell me how to have fun in this game. I tried a dungeon once and all I did was running after the party and spamming some spells at the boss. I want to enjoy it, but after the Tamier Unlimited there is no character progress until you're CP160, and even then it's marginal.

      things you can grind alone are objectively fine. I'm fine killing 100 billion slimes solo, I would do that any time over even having to roll for a 1/100 in a large group. I fricking hate group play and I wish all MMOs would abolish it in favor of offline MMO format like XII and xenoblade.

    You're supposed to be playing the game because you're having fun. Getting rare items you want is just the cherry on top. If you're playing a game or content that you don't enjoy because you want a chance at that dopamine hit from winning a roll, well, that sounds like a personal problem.

    This what neopets is but on steroids. All players compete for items than spawn randomly through the day. Rare items (r99 and r100) only spawn once per month or even year. The worst part is that it is a tedious monotonous task (there is no gameplay, you just sit on a page and keep refreshing), and also there are bots that autobuy anything valuable with almost inhuman speed.
