Everything in this game dies unbelievably fast, I was one patch late to the second FF11 alliance raid and we skipped several mechanics in every fight, it wasn't an especially good group either this happens consistently.
The state of actually old content is also genuinely abysmal, I finally managed to get a few friends to start this game and after every dungeon, trial and raid their reaction has been "that's it?". Yeah normal content is not really that impressive when it comes to mechanics but you miss out on more than half the fight on most older content. This isn't some new issue either, fucking King Thordan has been a complete punching bag for atleast 3 expansions, the peak of heavensward is a complete goddamn joke to anyone starting now. And as someone who has more than 7000 hours in this game it sucks for me too, I'd actually like to be able to experience the fights I'm queueing into, we are incentivized to do old content, please let us actually play them.
This is genuinely inexcusable with how long it has been a problem, do something about it, this is shameful.
