You can dodge everything in Dark Souls though, you can't dodge everything in XI. It's very different.

XI is just managing how well you can take a hit. With ilvl gear. With capped pdt/mdt.

The gameplay is clunky and not very responsive, and most certainly I don't play games to have my patience tested.

Neither. Soloing to 75 is not the same thing as being prepared for the level 65+ content in proper high end solo gear.
That's another thing in and of itself.

And obviously I have tried, I don't speak of things I don't know about.

No, DRK wasn't started until after abyssea came about.
RDM and WHM weren't done solo, but in parties.
It's been a very long while, and it was done on my old character, Felinity.

I dunno, sounds like you never tried any endgame in 14 from your post in that thread
By Bloodrose 2015-01-03 11:51:57
Nope, All characters of mine have been Bismarck only

I talked about it for hours yesterday with Scar. Apparently I don't define skill by the same standard as you people.

Would you mind explaining what you mean then? Because it sounded like "you hit these buttons and you win if you remember a few moves the boss does" and it's not really that simple

I'd rather just be considered wrong than to go over that argument again. And I've been talked about it to death, I still disagree on that being skillful.

What game would you say requires skill then?

I don't know, but can't think of any that I've played that does. I know everyone says Dark Souls does, but as I couldn't stand it I can't pronounce myself on the matter.
edit: mind you I'm fine with it, it's no big deal after all games are meant for relax

I would say Tetris requires planning and luck.
By Bloodrose 2015-01-03 12:01:53
Planning *is* a skill, and you need to raise your luck parameters.

Say you tried to solo Fenrir at 75 cap using a nin/thf drac; Is there anything in 14 you'd say would be that difficult by your own terms? You can't even solo bosses on here :/ unless they are from treasure maps, so nothing is that difficult unless you go into a fight blind and don't have amazing gear, it can be difficult and you may fail a lot but you will eventually get it down... maybe :|

Majority of fights are 4-8 man so it's a bit different. There aren't a lot of things you solo and if you can solo them, they're quite easy. Maybe if half the party wipes and you still manage to salvage the run, I'd say skill is involved.
This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
