Ryne and Gaia haven't been relevant for two expansions and they still get plenty of lewds.

I am asking what is fun about simon-says DDR slop with bodychecks galore, that's so mechanically bloated that you need to read/watch these kinds of convoluted guides just to be able to clear them instead of being bale to simply intuit what you need to do by simply looking at your screen? Elden Ring is considered one of the hardest video games ever and literally all the game boils down to mechanically is just dodging the enemy's attacks. It's far FAR less simple yet still extremely hard.

So why does FFXIV need such extremely overcomplicated mechanical bloat in order to challenge it's playerbase?
